BV Certified Polyurea Covered EVA Foam Fender

Product Introduction

EVA foam fender is also a kind of compressed fender with polyure as outside protective layer, internal with EVA effective foam as buffer medium. Its compression can absorb the ship's reaction force, and the destructive effects on wharf and ships can be reduced.

The greatest feature of EVA foam fender is its floating performance, won't be affected by the tidal range.Bright in color, customized colors and sizes are available according to customer's requirement. Compared with pneumatic rubber fender,EVA foam filled fender do not need to inflate when using, it's safe and maintance-free .Connected with flange, easy to install, move and use; It's reaction force grows from a small baginning to a mightly, and has great energy absorption.

EVA foam fenders offers more flexibility as dimensions and performance characteristics can be customized according to type of project and specific requirements. There is no ISO standard as for the pneumatics, but design and manufacturing guidelines are given by PIANC .

As with the rubber fenders the foam fenders can be floating in sea, fixed to quay or hanging from ship side. Different type of application requires different type of solution.
