Anchor buoys: what if we made the choice to preserve the ocean?

The buoy is a key component of the mooring system, but its environmental impact varies considerably according to its design. Let's compare our Temano® buoy with a conventional buoy of equivalent weight and volume.

The limitations of conventional buoys:

- Made from low-quality PEMD, they have poor UV resistance and degrade rapidly.

- When foamed, a simple cut is enough to release polystyrene balls into the ocean, threatening marine fauna and exacerbating microplastic pollution.

- Their manufacture has a high carbon footprint.

Our sustainable alternative: the Temano® buoy

- Made from high-quality flexible HDPE, it offers UV 16 resistance and a lifespan of over 10 years.

- Foam-free, it eliminates the risk of microplastic pollution.

- Its innovative design improves stability, prevents shearing of the orin, and allows the integration of options such as reserve buoyancy or lighting.

- As a hollow buoy, it can accommodate measuring instruments or on-board electronics for scientific or technical applications.

- Responsible manufacturing with 55% fewer CO₂ emissions.

- Made in Brittany, it supports local industry and limits the carbon footprint linked to transport.

- Incorporates 3 facets dedicated to thermo-engraved numbering, offering durable, legible identification over time.

Choosing the Temano® buoy means opting for a more reliable, sustainable solution that respects the oceans.

Together, let's make boating more sustainable!
