Crew Transfer Vessel Fender
A new generation of Crew Transfer Vessel bow fendering.
An innovatively engineered alternative to rubber bow fenders
Buoyant Works has developed the next generation of Crew Transfer Vessel Bow Fendering. Utilising our progressive compression technology and modular construction, we have achieved significant performance and environmental benefits.
We have replaced the traditional rubber bow fender with a new modular approach, comprising independent impact fenders and step units. This provides maximum design and operational flexibility to accommodate most vessel types and sizes.
Long-term consistent performance
Reduces maintenance costs and vessel operation downtime.
Significant weight savings
Generate performance and operational benefits.
Weight savings lead to lower fuel consumption
Generating environmental benefits and lower operational costs.
Small parts are easier and cheaper to replace
Modular design lends itself to simpler replacement routines.
Our fenders work harder for longer and under more challenging conditions

We’re the Market Leaders in Polyurethane Fendering and here’s why...

HIGH RESISTANT SURFACE
Flexible high abrasion resistant surface to maximise grip and durability.
POLYMER FORMULATION
Polymer formulation is tailored for this very demanding application.
EASE OF APPLICATION
Modular construction for ease of installation, maintenance and replacement.
MULTIPLE CONFIGURATIONS
Variety of configurations available to suit most vessel types and sizes.

SIMPLE FIXING DESIGNS
Simple fixing designs to assist with installation and maintenance requirements.
HIGH ABSORPTION
Multi cavity designs generate high energy absorption levels & low reaction force.
PERFORMANCE CONSISTENCY
Long term consistent performance.
INDEPENDENT IMPACT FENDERS
Independent impact fenders and step units to optimise each fender element for its intended function.

INTERCHANGEABLE STEPS
Interchangeable step units so that standoff distances between the fender edge & boat landing ladder can be maintained at between 500mm & 650mm.
NON-SLIP SURFACE
Non-slip surface applied to step units.
GREATER GRIP
Contoured impact surface helps maximise initial contact area and develop grip.
SHOCK STOP IMPACT
Shock Stop – helps absorb larger shock loads generated from higher speed.
