Jotun Marine Paints

Jotun saw an enormous increase in the size of the whaling fleet at the turn of the century and realized the potential in producing the marine coating he was selling himself, Gleditsch purchased an oil mill that was struggling and set about turning it into a paint manufacturing plant. In 1931 Jotun purchased Arcanol, a paint company that were producing a red lead based paint that offered extremely good rust-inhibiting properties, this paint coating proved to be the first real success for Jotun in the rapidly growing marine protective coatings industry. Jotun soon formulated an antifouling which meant that boats and ships were able to spend longer at sea before the necessity for cleaning in dry dock, this was typically up to four years.
