Trelleborg launches European fender rental service

Richard Hepworth, managing director at Trelleborg Marine Systems said, “In addition to supplying high quality rubber, foam and pneumatic fenders for permanent installation, we recognised the market need for temporary applications. Pneumatic and foam fenders provide an ideal solution for semi-permanent operations as they’re easy to deploy and require minimal maintenance.”

Rental is a highly cost effective solution for temporary applications and the company’s rental service offers a wide range of products. With strategically located centres across Europe, fendering can be delivered and installed quickly, often within days.

Pneumatic Fenders are known for their massive energy absorption and have a low reaction force. Foam Fenders are extremely resilient and due to a unique manufacturing process have high energy absorption for their reactive load. They can be used for almost any fendering application including ship-to-ship and can be floating or dock mounted.
