JettyGuard’s Foam Filled Fenders represent the pinnacle of reliable, high-performance fendering technology. Constructed with a solid, closed-cell polyethylene foam core and encased in a tough, filament-reinforced polyurethane elastomer skin, these fenders are engineered to be completely unsinkable. Unlike pneumatic alternatives, they maintain full functionality even if the outer skin is punctured, providing continuous protection in the most demanding operational conditions.
Key Advantages
- Unsinkable Design: The solid, closed-cell foam core cannot deflate or lose pressure, guaranteeing consistent performance and buoyancy if the skin is breached.
- High Energy Absorption: Expertly designed to absorb extreme berthing energies while exerting low reaction forces, significantly reducing stress on both vessel hulls and dock structures.
- Minimal Maintenance: With no need for air pressure monitoring or re-inflation, our foam filled fenders drastically reduce operational costs and maintenance requirements over their long service life.
- Puncture-Resistant: The robust polyurethane skin is highly resistant to abrasion, wear, and tear, making it ideal for harsh marine environments and heavy-duty use.
Engineered for versatility, these fenders are the preferred choice for a wide range of applications, including LNG terminals, container berths, naval vessel docks, and ship-to-ship (STS) lightering operations. Each fender can be customized in size and density to meet specific project and performance requirements, ensuring optimal safety and efficiency.
