Pneumatic rubber fenders are vital components in marine operations, providing a protective cushion between vessels or between vessels and docking structures. Designed to absorb energy and reduce impact during berthing or side-by-side operations, these fenders ensure the safety of both vessels and crew. Their robust construction features a reinforced rubber shell filled with compressed air, allowing them to withstand extreme pressure and harsh marine conditions.
These fenders are particularly crucial during operations involving large-scale vessels, such as the world's largest floating production facilities and LNG carriers. Their ability to accommodate the movements of vessels in turbulent waters makes them an essential choice for demanding applications.
To meet evolving customer needs, advancements in pneumatic fender technology include larger sizes and integrated monitoring systems. These improvements enhance performance, durability, and operational safety, making pneumatic rubber fenders an indispensable solution for modern marine operations.
