Supply

We supply high-quality booms and barrier components essential for effective waterway management projects.

Installation

Professional installation services from experienced engineers ensuring your barriers are set up efficiently and securely.

What We Do

Turnkey Waterway Barriers engineered to withstand the toughest conditions. Our solutions are guaranteed..

Debris Management

Debris Management

Debris booms retain or divert floating debris that causes costly power generation losses due to blockage of hydroelectric dam intakes.

Ice Control

Ice Control

Ice booms form a stable ice cover upstream of hydroelectric dams, reducing frazil ice buildup that can cause costly interruptions and revenue losses.

Public Safety

Public Safety

Deployed seasonally or year round, safety booms provide a visible boundary to warn boaters and recreational users to keep away from dangerous waters.

Ship Arrest Booms

Ship Arrest Booms

Projects that involve special conditions or challenges - for example, ship arrest systems that protect bridges from impacts with large ships.
