No, HDPE doesn’t need any maintenance. Because there’s no rust, corrosion or osmosis. You only have to clean the hull to get rid of fouling after a long time in the water.
Yes, HDPE is 100% Recyclable. So if the boat is at the end of it’s lifespan, it can be melted into a new product! However, our boats last really long, so it’s unlikely that you have to recycle it.
No, Black HDPE is 100% UV-resistance.
HDPE has an impact resistance around 5 times better than fiberglass. It is quite difficult to severely damage a boat made out of HDPE as the inherent nature of the material is to flex on impact. However, eventually HDPE is breakable as well.
Black Workboats stands for sustainability and ensures that all our boats are environmentally friendly.
