Permanent Debris Boom

Standard debris booms are built for long-term trash, seaweed, and oil containment in calm to moderate water conditions. Marine grade connectors and high impact bolts keep the floating debris boom in place even during active water conditions. Our seaweed control barrier options come with UV and marine growth inhibitors to prevent aquatic plants from interfering with the debris barrier.

Specifically designed for stronger coastal waters, this HD Debris Boom uses heavy duty, superior strength materials in its construction. Constructed for durability, the HD floating debris boom uses high buoyancy, double-isolate polyethylene floats with oil-impermeable urethane foam. Developed with added UV and marine growth inhibitors, the debris barrier fabric is made of stronger materials for greater endurance, as well as color stability and UV resistance. This heavy-duty boom also uses half- inch galvanized chain for additional support.

Our most robust floating debris boom option, the HD debris boom requires proper anchoring to maximize effectiveness and ensure longevity. Browse our Marine Accessories to find the right deployment and anchoring system for your situation, or contact us for assistance!

Seaweed Barrier - An influx of seaweed and other aquatic plants can affect attendance and the experience at public beaches, recreational lakes, or other water bodies. For effective seaweed and debris control, Parks and Recreation departments can deploy our seaweed control barrier. The seaweed barrier deflects the plants further down the waterway or else can be set up to contain the seaweed in one area for easy collection and disposal.

Trash Boom - Dams and municipal water treatment plants need to prevent floating debris and trash from entering or obstructing their water intake systems. Debris blocking the ports reduces efficiency and can cost significant money to clean out. Worse yet, if it the floating debris or trash gets into the water intake systems it can damage the equipment and cause shut downs. Our Permanent trash booms can prevent debris floating in the river from obstructing both intake and outlet ports.

Debris Barrier – Floating aquatic plants or trash entering public harbors and marinas interferes with docked boats and ships. By installing a permanent floating debris barrier, Transport Infrastructure departments can avert trash and plants from gathering around pilings and supports.
