Dock and Pier Protection: EVA foam fenders are commonly installed on docks, piers, and quays to absorb the energy of vessels when they dock, preventing damage to both the ship and the docking structure.
Ship Protection: These fenders protect the hulls of vessels by providing a cushioning barrier between the ship and the dock, absorbing impact forces during docking or mooring.
Marinas and Ports: EVA foam fenders are widely used in marinas and ports, where regular docking and undocking operations occur, to reduce maintenance costs and prevent damage to both the ships and the infrastructure.
Advantages of EVA Foam Fenders:
Energy Absorption: EVA foam fenders are highly effective at absorbing impact energy, reducing the risk of damage to both ships and port infrastructure.
Lightweight and Easy to Handle: EVA foam fenders are significantly lighter than traditional rubber fenders, making them easier to handle and install, especially for smaller vessels or installations.
Corrosion and UV Resistance: EVA foam is highly resistant to corrosion from saltwater, UV degradation, and extreme weather conditions, making it suitable for long-term use in marine environments.
Durability: These fenders have excellent resilience and shock absorption properties, ensuring that they retain their shape and performance over time.
Low Maintenance: Due to their closed-cell structure, EVA foam fenders do not absorb water, and their durability minimizes the need for frequent maintenance.
Eco-Friendly: EVA foam is generally more eco-friendly than other materials, as it can be recycled and has lower environmental impact.
