Berthon Boatyard - Paint Spraying Facilities

Air temperatures are continuously controlled, and - along with other parameters such as hull temperature and air humidity - are monitored and permanently recorded to ensure a top class paint finish and a complete history.

Berthon has the most modern spray facility in Europe. The 92ft x 36ft (28m x 11m) state of the art booth is flanked by two similar size preparation booths to complement the UK's premier boatyard facility. It allows a dust-free spray paint finish every time.

At Berthon we mainly spray using Awlgrip or International paints.

Challenge 72 #40, AVIVA

painted by Berthon, July 2003

"I think Aviva looks rather good after one and three quarter circumnavigations the hard way or 162 days in the Southern Ocean with the same paint job! Congratulations."
