The GRINTEC RAPID self-inflating containment boom is the best solution to minimize reaction time in deployment operations, because it does not require auxiliary equipment for inflating their floats. It is developed for use in protected waters and ports, as well as in open waters and bays. It is made of PVC-coated polyester and its flotation chamber contains a mechanical self-inflation system, totally free of metallic elements and external valves. The GRINTEC RAPID self-inflating containment boom has exceptional wave tracking due to its high cylindrical buoyancy. In addition, like inflatable containment barriers, it is perfect to be stored on a hydraulic stowage reel.
Accessories and complementary products:
Towing Equipment: The Towing system have been designed to guarantee a correct distribution of stresses in the booms when being towed by a boat. It favors the control of the booms during maneuvers.
Anchoring equipment: It is an essential element for the installation of containment booms in unforeseen locations, either in ports or coasts. These equipments are dimensioned according to the type of boom. Do not hesitate to contact us.
Tidal compensator: It is the device designed to keep the booms on the correct waterline regardless of the level of the tide in the sea, reservoirs, or places where water level changes occur. It must also ensure a good closure of the boom against the dock, so that in the event of a spill, the passage of hydrocarbon does not occur.
Hydraulic reels: The reels are developed for the stowage of hydrocarbon containment booms, to achieve a quick and safe deployment and collection of the barriers.
