First Solar-Powered Ferry Constructed with Natural Fibre Composites is Launched on Adriatic Sea

This solar-powered ferry, with a capacity of 100 passengers, is a pioneering waterborne mass transportation vessel. Its use of natural fibre composites for interior parts significantly reduces CO₂ emissions and offers end-of-life options.

Bcomp is very pleased to announce that an eco-catamaran partially built with Bcomp’s flax-fibre composite ampliTex™ has begun ferrying passengers around the Port of Rovinj in the Adriatic Sea this summer. The first of its kind, the solar-powered PROeco vessel is the result of a two-and-a-half-year collaboration between Bcomp and Croatia-based marine manufacturer Marservis.
