Pneumatic rubber fender
Florescence manufactures ship floating fenders in a wide range of sizes. We can offer sizes from 0.5m diameter and 1m length up to 4.5m diameter and 12m length. Florescence series comes with or without chain and tire netting made of used truck tires (aircraft tires are optional).
Florescence marine rubber buffers are manufactured and tested in accordance with ISO 17357:2014. This is the only standard ensuring the high quality of fenders. Our fenders are suitable for all marine conditions and built to withstand the harsh forces involved in STS and STD operations.
Our fenders have a three-layer body (as per ISO 17357:2014): outer layer, tire cord and inner layer. The fenders have a standard internal pressure of 50kPa and can also be delivered with 80kPa.
Florescence series fenders can be delivered with class certification (BV/CCS/ABS/DNV etc.).

Florescence pneumatic fender features:
1. Superior Impact Absorption: The inflatable structure design enables the fender to absorb large amounts of impact energy with low reaction force, effectively protecting hulls, wharves, and offshore platforms from collision damage. It is particularly suitable for high-impact scenarios such as large ship berthing and STS transfer operations.
2. Exceptional Durability: Made of premium synthetic rubber and high-strength nylon cord fabric, the fender boasts excellent wear resistance, aging resistance, seawater corrosion resistance, and UV resistance. It can operate stably in harsh marine environments (high humidity, salt spray, extreme temperatures) for a long service life.
3. Stable & Safe Operation: Adopting integrated vulcanization technology, the fender has a tight structure with no air leakage. Equipped with a safety valve, pressure gauge, and anti-corrosion steel flange, it allows real-time pressure monitoring and automatic overpressure relief, ensuring safe and reliable operation.
4. Flexible Customization: We offer tailored solutions based on customer needs, including customizing diameter, length, working pressure, rubber material, and flange type. This flexibility makes our pneumatic fenders suitable for various marine scenarios, from commercial ports to offshore wind power platforms.
5. Easy Installation & Maintenance: Compared with other types of fenders, our pneumatic fender is lightweight and comes with complete installation accessories (flanges, bolts, inflation valves). Daily maintenance only requires regular pressure checks and surface cleaning, with simple operation and low maintenance costs.
Submarine Pneumatic Fender
At Florescence, we have a strong focus on developing the fender business further to meet the demands of tomorrow. Next to high quality, innovation is one of our main objectives. We are now introducing our new Florescence submarine pneumatic fender to customers worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the standard lifespan of an ISO 17357 pneumatic fender?
A1: With proper maintenance and correct operating pressure (50 kPa/80 kPa), our premium pneumatic fenders offer an operational lifespan of 6 to 10 years under harsh marine conditions.
Q2: How often should the internal air pressure of a floating fender be checked?
A2: Internal pressure should be inspected every 1 to 3 months. Maintaining the designated P50 or P80 pressure level ensures optimal energy absorption and prevents structural deformation.
Q3: Can pneumatic rubber fenders be used in heavy tidal zones?
A3: Yes. Unlike fixed solid rubber fenders, pneumatic fenders float and rise or fall naturally with tidal fluctuations, maintaining continuous, reliable protection between the ship and dock.
Q4: What materials are used for the Chain-and-Tyre Net (CTN)?
A4: The net utilizes heavy-duty galvanized chains (or stainless steel) combined with high-abrasion aircraft tyres or heavy truck tyres to provide maximum external shield defense.
Q5: What is the maximum safe compression limit for a pneumatic fender?
A5: The standard design safe compression limit is 60% deflection. Exceeding this limit dramatically increases reaction forces and risk of safety valve activation.
Q6: Do your pneumatic fenders include safety valves?
A6: Yes. Fenders with a diameter of 2500mm and larger are equipped with certified safety valves to release excess internal pressure and prevent bursting during accidental over-compression.
Q7: Can you provide third-party raw material inspection certificates?
A7: Yes. We supply full material traceability records, including tensile strength tests for the rubber and synthetic-tyre-cord layers approved by BV or CCS.
Q8: What accessories are required for mooring a pneumatic fender?
A8: Standard installation hardware includes anchor chains, shackles, swivels, master links, and heavy-duty guy ropes to secure the fender to the hull or quay wall.
Q9: Why use aircraft tyres instead of standard truck tyres for the protective net?
A9: Aircraft tyres possess significantly higher tensile strength, thicker rubber plies, and superior UV resistance, offering double the service life under severe hull friction.
Q10: Are these fenders resistant to oil and chemical spills in ports?
A10: Yes. Our outer rubber compound is specially formulated to resist oil-sheen adhesion, ozone degradation, and chemical pollutants typical in heavy industrial commercial ports.
