ISO 17357 Certified Marine-Grade EVA Foam Filled Fender with Customizable Density 70-110 kg/m³ for Vessel Protection

Product Overview

Our EVA Foam Filled Fender is a premium marine fendering solution, engineered to provide reliable impact protection for vessels, port infrastructures, and offshore installations during berthing and mooring operations. Manufactured from high‑quality closed‑cell EVA (Ethylene‑Vinyl Acetate) foam and fully certified to ISO 17357, this fender delivers consistent energy absorption, low reaction force, and excellent buoyancy, effectively safeguarding both ship hulls and dock structures. Its robust construction and advanced material properties make it the ideal choice for commercial ports, ship‑to‑ship transfers, ferry terminals, and offshore platforms.

Material Excellence & Core Performance

The fender’s core is composed of high‑density closed‑cell EVA foam, chosen for its outstanding resilience, water impermeability, and resistance to seawater, UV radiation, and abrasion. Unlike traditional open‑cell foams, our EVA material does not absorb water, eliminating the risk of waterlogging and maintaining consistent buoyancy and cushioning performance throughout its service life. The standard foam density is set at 70 kg/m³, providing an optimal balance of compression characteristics for general marine applications. For projects requiring higher load capacity or enhanced energy dissipation, we offer customizable density up to 110 kg/m³, allowing you to fine‑tune the fender’s stiffness and reaction force to match the specific impact loads, vessel tonnage, and berth configuration.

Full Customization Options

We understand that each port and vessel has unique operational requirements. Therefore, we provide extensive customization to ensure perfect fit and performance. The fender’s outer diameter can be manufactured from 0.5 m to 4.8 m, and the length from 1 m to 12 m – accommodating everything from small workboats to large bulk carriers and VLCCs. In addition, the surface color is fully customizable according to your preference, enabling easy visual identification or aesthetic coordination with your port’s branding. All custom specifications are engineered with precision, and we supply detailed performance calculations to verify that the fender meets your exact berthing conditions, including tidal variations and approach velocities.

Certification & Rigorous Quality Assurance

Our EVA Foam Filled Fenders are manufactured in compliance with ISO 17357, the international standard for marine fendering, ensuring they meet stringent safety and performance criteria. Quality is our top priority – every single unit undergoes a mandatory pressure test prior to packaging and shipment. This test simulates extreme operating conditions to verify the fender’s structural integrity, foam compaction uniformity, and the seal of all fittings. Only after passing this strict inspection does the unit receive our quality clearance and be deflated, folded, and carefully packed for delivery. We also provide full documentation, including material test certificates (MTC), factory acceptance test (FAT) records, and ISO compliance statements, ensuring complete traceability and easy project approval by classification societies or port authorities.

Superior Performance Characteristics

The closed‑cell EVA foam construction offers several distinct operational advantages. Firstly, it provides high energy absorption with low reaction force, effectively reducing the peak impact transmitted to both the vessel and the dock structure. This characteristic minimizes structural fatigue and extends the lifespan of your quay walls and mooring equipment. Secondly, the foam’s rapid recovery ensures that the fender returns to its original shape immediately after compression, maintaining consistent cushioning performance over repeated berthing cycles. Thirdly, the material’s inherent buoyancy simplifies handling and installation, as the fender remains afloat even when not fully compressed, reducing the need for heavy lifting gear during deployment.

Wide Range of Applications

Our EVA Foam Filled Fenders are versatile and suitable for a broad spectrum of marine environments. They are widely used in:

• Commercial ports, container terminals, and bulk cargo docks for safe ship‑to‑dock berthing.

• Ship‑to‑ship transfer operations, including lightering and STS cargo handling.

• Offshore platforms, floating production units, and temporary mooring buoys.

• Ferry terminals, yacht marinas, and inland waterway facilities.

• Harbour construction, salvage, and emergency fendering.

• 

Warranty & After‑Sales Support

We stand firmly behind the durability of our product with a comprehensive 1‑year warranty covering manufacturing defects and performance deviations. Our dedicated technical support team is available to assist with installation guidance, maintenance recommendations, and any operational queries. Routine maintenance is minimal – periodic visual inspection and surface cleaning are sufficient to keep the fender in peak condition, ensuring a long, cost‑effective service life.

Choose our EVA Foam Filled Fender for a dependable, customizable, and certified fendering solution that combines advanced material technology with meticulous craftsmanship, delivering peace of mind and operational efficiency for years to come.
