Mapei Marine
A complete range of products for the ship-building industry.
The ship-building industry has evolved significantly over the last few decades due to the constant development and progress in construction technology and the continuous research work carried out on materials. An innovative process that encompasses cargo ships, vessels for military use and cruise liners, as well as pleasure boats and ocean-going yachts. And on top of the consolidated requirements in terms of durability and resistance to aggressive atmospheric and environmental agents, or wear caused by the movement of high volumes of passengers and loads, a new list of requirements also has to be taken into consideration.

And on top of the consolidated requirements in terms of durability and resistance to aggressive atmospheric and environmental agents, or wear caused by the movement of high volumes of passengers and loads, a new list of requirements also has to be taken into consideration.
The need to offer rooms and spaces with increasingly high levels of comfort and liveability acts as a stimulus for research to develop new solutions, materials and finishes that combine aesthetics and functionality. The requirements in terms of health, safety, and hygiene that must be guaranteed for ship’s passengers are also becoming increasingly stringent.
The answer to these needs and requirements is Mapei Marine, a dedicated line of products for the ship-building industry, which has been developed thanks to the exclusive wealth of experience that Mapei has built up in this specific application field.
Solutions and products developed through a process of research, carried out in the name of sustainability and attention to mankind and the environment, which integrate together synergically to provide a truly complete system that guarantees certified quality, excellent performance characteristics, functionality, reliability, durability, ease of use, and simple application.
PUBLIC AREAS
Marble, wooden and textile floors
Mapei solutions are the right choice to create elegant floors in large entertainment areas, thanks to the use of controlled-shrinkage cementitious substrates, high performance adhesives and grouts with an uniform colour. Manifold solutions for wooden floorings, particularly suited for both the more elegant areas and areas subjected to high foot traffic, including restaurants, bars, and decks.
Resin-based floors in interiors
Space-sharing areas and meeting points, where architecture and design play a key role, can be further enhanced by adopting Mapei solutions, through flooring choices that help create flooring with an enjoyable look and original, harmonious materic effects.
PASSENGER CABINS
Cabins are now on a par with the most prestigious hotel rooms and every minor detail must be faultless, starting from the flooring. To get the best results what could be better than a combination of self-levelling, fibre-reinforced substrate mortars with solvent-free, fibre-reinforced adhesives, ideal for any type of floor?

Just like the most modern cities, cruise ships are equipped with every type of comfort. And the ships that carve their way across the oceans today are evolving continuously in terms of aesthetics, luxury and quality. In these fantastic surroundings the decks – both internal and external – play an important role, in that they are one of the places on a ship where passengers find great pleasure in spending most of their time.
Systems and solutions for flooring on decks are becoming increasingly important features of contemporary ship design, because they help create that special atmosphere designers are always striving to achieve. In the light of these developments, Mapei has developed new flooring systems for decks that allows architects and designers to create a wide variety of solutions with considerable aesthetic impact: MAPEDECK SYSTEMS. MAPEDECK systems are a combination of cutting-edge performance characteristics and high aesthetic value. With these systems it is possible to create spaces that are both elegant and versatile, which at the same time safeguard the resistance and service life of the flooring itself, even in areas exposed to the most intense foot traffic.
MAPEDECK systems for flooring are applied in situ. Most of the floorings may even be opened to foot traffic the day after they have been installed. This rapid installation procedure means that large areas of flooring can be installed in a short space of time. And the various colours and decorative elements available allow creativity to be expressed through a vast array of models and patterns.

All this while safeguarding the flooring’s properties of resistance and durability, even in the most frequently walked on areas.
Installation of artificial grass
Areas used mainly for relax are characterised by the use of artificial grass which requires the most appropriate installation solutions.
