Floating marine fenders are buoyant protective devices used to absorb impact energy and prevent damage between vessels, docks, piers, offshore structures, and other marine installations. They are designed to float on water, making them ideal for dynamic marine environments where water levels fluctuate.

Key Features of Floating Fenders:

1. Buoyancy: Made from lightweight, buoyant materials (e.g., foam-filled or pneumatic air chambers).
2. Shock Absorption: Absorbs kinetic energy from vessel impacts to protect both the ship and the structure.
3. Durability: Resistant to UV rays, saltwater, oil, and extreme weather conditions.
4. Versatility: Used in ports, marinas, offshore platforms, and temporary mooring applications.

Types of Floating Fenders:

Foam-Filled Floating Fenders

1. Made of closed-cell polyethylene foam or EPDM rubber.
2. Lightweight, maintenance-free, and ideal for small to medium vessels.

Pneumatic Floating Fenders (Air-Filled)

1. Large, inflatable rubber fenders filled with compressed air.
2. Used for heavy-duty applications (e.g., oil tankers, cargo ships).

Modular Floating Fender Systems

1. Interlocking units that can be combined for custom protection.
2. Often used in marinas and yacht clubs.

Cylindrical & Cone Floating Fenders

1. Common in ship-to-ship (STS) transfers and offshore operations.

Common Applications:

• Ports & Harbors – Protects berthing structures from ship impacts.
• Offshore Platforms – Used for mooring supply vessels.
• Marinas & Yacht Clubs – Prevents boat collisions with docks.
• Ship-to-Ship (STS) Transfers – Ensures safe cargo operations between vessels.
