Marine Fenders International, Inc. manufactures the Ocean Guard™ Donut Monopile floating fender exclusively. The Ocean Guard ™ Donut Monopile floating fender design is an innovative foam filled fender. This unique fendering system provides a floating energy absorbing foam filled fender. It is designed to simply slip over a stationary monopile and float at the fluctuating water line.
Upon contact of a ship or vessel, this design allows the fender to freely rotate and self adjust with the changing water level. The unique rotating feature also makes it ideal for turning dolphins and eliminates shear forces. Where there are large or extreme tidal fluctuations a mooring crown can be constructed into the fender to allow safe moorage during the tidal swings. This can also be accomplished when the fender is compressed.
