BGI Partnering with Maritime Systems Australia to Bring BG-ONE to Marine Industry

Blue Guard Innovations (BGI) announced today that Maritime Systems Australia is now a distributor of BGI products.

The BGI range of solid-state smart switches and sensors detect water as well as oil and fuel spills in the bilge and engine compartments, preventing them from accidentally discharging overboard.

“BGI products tick all the boxes in our market,” said marine industry veteran Steve Parsons, owner of Maritime Systems Australia. “Leisure boat owners and commercial vessel operators alike are keenly aware of the importance of protecting environmentally sensitive zones such as the Great Barrier Reef, major harbors, and other designated World Heritage Areas throughout Australia,” Steve added.

The BG-One is a winner of the Pittman Innovation 2019 Award in the Systems category.
