TRELLEBORG TO SHOWCASE NAVIGATION BUOYS AT SEAWORK 2015 INTERNATIONAL

Attracting more than 7,350 high calibre visitors from over 53 countries across the globe, Seawork International is the largest and fastest growing international commercial marine and workboat exhibition and conference held in a European working port environment.

Richard Hepworth, President of Trelleborg''s marine systems operation, says: “Our unique, comprehensive range of navigation buoys provides a solution to fit all demanding requirements - in addition to our standard range, we are able to manufacture to specification where required. The modular system provides an easily transported option to cut down turnaround time and enable fast installation, as they can be shipped in sections and assembled on site.”

Manufactured from impact resistant, colour-fast, UV stable materials and comprising of sectional hull pieces filled with marine grade, water-resistant foam, Trelleborg''s range of IALA compliant modular navigation buoys is built around a hot dipped galvanised steel core. Available as standard in diameters ranging from 1.25 to 3.6 meters, Trelleborg will also manufacture precisely to specification where required.

Trelleborg will showcase its range of Foam / Elastomer constructed mooring buoys, which are rapidly replacing traditional steel mooring buoys thanks to their low maintenance, self-fendering resilient foam bodies and their ease of handling and repair whilst offshore.

Trelleborg''s booth will also feature its pneumatic and foam fenders. As an ideal ship protection medium for load sensitive structures such as LNG vessels and ocean platforms, Trelleborg''s pneumatic fenders feature high energy absorption with low reaction force. Trelleborg foam fenders are super tough due to a unique manufacturing process and have high energy absorption for their reactive load.
