Our customer, based in Singapore, contacted us when they needed a bow fender solution for one of their oil and gas crew boats delivered and fitted in a very short timeframe. In addition to the short timeframe, the solution had to be impact resistant to protect the vessel and marine structures and cost effective.

Our Manuplas® division worked with a UK-based customer to develop a standardised bow fender system for their wind farm service vessel fleet. Our customer was experiencing delays in replacing damaged fenders on their vessels that was beginning to impact service levels (they operate a crew transfer fleet of 30 vessels in the UK offshore industry).

Our customer, a major cruise line, required a fender to protect a tourist boat stored on the back of a cruise ship. For use in the harsh arctic environment, the customer needed a large fender to protect the vessel against bumps such as ice. To complete what was a unique project, the fender also needed to be appealing to the eye as the boats intended use was commercial.
