Built to last
Reinforced elastomer skin
SeaFloat ® buoys have a nylon filament reinforced
polyurethane skin which has excellent resistance to water,
oil, ice, strong sunlight and abrasive surfaces. It remains
flexible even at -40°C (-40°F) making it suitable for
Tropical or Arctic operations.
Energy absorbing
The SeaFloat ® buoy absorbs impact energy so colliding
vessels will not damage the buoy or themselves.
Unsinkable foam
Only closed-cell foams are used in SeaFloat ® buoys. The
closed-cell matrix of the foam means it does not absorb
water even if cut or damaged. This makes SeaFloat ®
buoys impossible to sink.
Permanent colours
The polyurethane skin is pigmented through its entire
thickness, so colours will not wear off and will never
need repainting. A wide choice of bright colours can help
improve safety and identification.
Custom engineered
Every SeaFloat ® is engineered to suit the application. We
can advise on operating needs, load requirements and
other features to suit every case.
Optional fitting
End fittings
A variety of SeaFloat ® end fittings are available. All are
made of steel – either galvanised or painted to protect
against corrosion.
Quality
SeaFloats ® must be reliable. We closely monitor all raw
materials and manufacturing processed from start to
finish for a highly dependable, long lasting product. At the
end of their service lives, most buoys can be returned to
the factory where they can be refurbished ‘as good
as new’.
