The buoys are designed and built to last in extreme conditions. Even in the situation of the skin being punctured, the closed cell foam filled polyethylene hull sections negate water absorption and keep the buoy full operational. This makes the range especially good for traffic areas and will protect technical equipment such as monitoring technology. Left: 1.8m Navigation-Data buoy. Right: Roto-moulding machine. Left: 1.8m Navigation North Cardinal buoy. Right: 0.6m Regulatory Buoy. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________...

GENERAL D ESIGN AND MANUFACTURE MODULAR CONSTRUCTION, LIGHT WEIGH, HIGHEST QUALITY MATERIALS The buoys are built to last in extreme conditions. Even if the skin is punctured, the closed cell foam filled polyethylene hull sections negate water absorption and keep it fully operational. This makes the range especially good for housing and protecting technical equipment such as monitoring technology. The Polyethylene used is Hexane grade 1314 Polyethylene of the latest high UV stabilized (level 15), colour fast protection. This holds the maximum ICO level available. In addition, this also provides...

RELIABLE, DURABLE AND STABLE BUOY MAXIMIZING ITS PERFORMANCE EVEN IN THE MOST DEMANDING SEA AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS Our advanced octagonal twin skin design modules, utilising the high strength polymer in conjunction with highly accurately dispensed Polyurethane foam in the ribbed floating sections, means that high impact waves are broken up and dispersed, thus reducing their force on the structure itself. The twin skin feature of the modules consists of two layers of polymer that are separated by an air gap, meeting at “kiss points”. This forms an even stronger shape than a single skin structure....

FLAT BOTTOM SHORT-TAIL DESIGN PMB range can be stored and transported upright ready to deploy requiring less deck space than traditional tube tail buoys. These buoys also benefit from a low centre of gravity thanks to a short-tail ballasted design. While the principal reason for the skirt design was to act as a dampener thereby replacing the more common tail tube design, the secondary benefits of the design are considerable. Thanks to the level base provided by the skirt, buoys can be stored and transported upright ready to deploy. They therefore require considerably less deck space than traditional...

STRUCTURE, LIFTING AND MOORING POINTS STRUCTURE DESIGNED FOR OPEN-OCEAN ENVIRONMENTS AND THEREFORE BE EXTREMELY STRONG AND ROBUST The Superstructure design, using an innovative conical internal bracing, which increases the strength of the buoy and reduces damage from accidental collision at sea and utilizes a modular plastic structure. Individual modules within the buoy construction are connected by use of a coupler and stainlesssteel/galvanized bolts and spacing bushes. Between the two component modules is the coupler and typically 8 stainless steel fastenings, torqued to the correct setting....
