Polyform Main Catalogue 2018
Polyform® was founded in 1955 in Ålesund, Norway, as the first company to produce inflatable, rotomolded soft Vinyl buoys. The company has been a pioneer in innovation, developing unique machinery and technologies for buoy and fender production.
Polyform introduced the first inflatable plastic buoy in 1955, significantly impacting the marine industry. Over the years, they have enhanced their production technology, including the introduction of fully automated and robot-assisted machinery in the 2000s.
Polyform's product line includes inflatable buoys and fenders, expanded foam marina fenders, purse seine floats, and hard-plastic products for various marine applications.
Notable innovations include the POLYMATIQ® production machine and WELCOTEC© welding control technology, which ensure high product quality and durability.
Polyform products feature flexible all-plastic valves, such as the V-10 and V-40, designed for easy inflation and deflation, ensuring air retention and product integrity.
Regular destructive testing is conducted to ensure product strength and reliability. Over-inflation is discouraged as it can reduce product strength and void warranties.
Products can be filled with Polystyrene (EPS) or Polyurethane (PUR) foams for added durability and versatility.
The catalog details various series of buoys and fenders, including the A-series and F-series, each designed for specific maritime applications. The A-series is known for its rib-reinforced ropeholds and seamless construction, while the F-series is recognized for its heavy-duty cylindrical design.
Polyform products are used across multiple sectors, including commercial fisheries, offshore industries, aquaculture, marinas, and recreational boating.
Polyform continues to lead in the marine industry with its commitment to innovation, quality, and a broad product range tailored to meet diverse maritime needs.

Made from BAceLL® foam, these fenders provide maximum protection for boats in marinas and require no air filling or maintenance.
This system includes fender modules and mounting hardware designed for easy installation and high durability.
Made from 100% closed cell material, this device is highly shock absorbent and buoyant, with a smooth, dirt-repellent surface.
Ensure correct inflation to avoid over-inflation, maintain proper buoyancy levels, and regularly check moorings for wear and tear.
Designed to prevent hoses from sinking during discharge operations, these devices reduce contamination risks and enhance safety.
Flowsafe devices are made from Bacell™, known for its shock absorbency, strength, and elasticity, and are available in various types with different dimensions and buoyancy levels.
The BPB and NF series are made from Bacell™ material, offering high tensile strength and resistance to water absorption.
Rotomolded from polyethylene and filled with foam, these buoys are used for mooring and spring applications.
The products comply with Norwegian standards for strength and safety in marine fish farms.
Modular and customizable buoys designed for offshore applications, equipped with different steel armatures and materials.
Mooring buoys used for marking fishing gear, cables, and pipelines, offering compressive strength and durability.
Designed for mussel farming and surface use, these buoys provide high breaking load for ropeholds.
Light buoys used for marking various installations, compatible with Jotron MF1114 light-armature.
Cylindrical floats with a strong PE shell and EPS filling, suitable for various applications.
Made from durable PE, designed for areas where direct emissions are not possible.
Heavy-duty fenders for commercial crafts, offering high abrasion resistance.
Suitable for marina systems, maintaining buoyancy even if damaged.
Polyform offers a range of subsea mooring, flotation, and buoyancy systems, customizable for various depths and project specifications.
Designed for subsea applications, providing flotation and protection for umbilicals.
The Sub Flowsafe series is available in different types, each with specific buoyancy and weight characteristics at various depths.
Polyform AS offers extensive customization options, from the idea phase to finished products.
Most hard-shell products are foam-filled with either EPS or PUR foam, affecting weight and buoyancy.
Polyform AS can create custom-molded products based on existing designs, offering tailored solutions for specific applications.
