Paint Maintenance Academy (PMA)

Paint Maintenance Academy (PMA), headquartered in Hamburg, specializes in technical surface care and the preservation of yacht coatings. In partnership with Wrede Consulting and Wretec, the organization utilizes over twenty years of industry expertise to manage the condition of superyacht exteriors.

The academy’s operations focus on protecting yachts from the degradation caused by UV exposure, salinity, and chemical pollutants. By using in-house developed cleaning systems and specialized topcoats, the team provides a functional shield that maintains the structural and aesthetic integrity of the vessel’s surface.

The maintenance process begins with a detailed technical assessment to identify contaminants, weathering patterns, and surface damage. Based on these findings, specialists develop a customized action plan tailored to the specific operational needs and environmental conditions of the yacht.

This systematic approach to surface management helps owners reduce long-term maintenance costs while preserving the asset’s value. With a global reach and a focus on transparent cost structures, the company ensures that high-level coating expertise is accessible to the international yachting community.
