Hyde Marine, now integrated with Optimarin, operates in the maritime transportation sector with a focus on ballast water treatment for ships. It is based in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, and sits within Optimarin’s global footprint as a ballast water treatment provider for the shipping industry. The arrangement links Hyde Marine’s U.S. presence with Optimarin’s specialization in ballast water treatment systems for vessels. Its customer base includes commercial ship operators and naval clients, as indicated by recent activity involving naval projects. In 2024, Optimarin signed a contract to supply BWTS for four new naval frigates ordered by the Dutch shipyard Damen Naval, underscoring engagement with defense-oriented maritime programs. That year, Optimarin also completed the acquisition of Hyde Marine’s ultraviolet treatment business from Industrie De Nora, expanding its ballast water treatment capabilities.
