Main Body : Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP) and Concrete
Interior : Watertight Bulkheads and Buoyancy Compartments

The primary feature of the composite concrete pontoon is its hybrid structure, which combines fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) with concrete. Compared with conventional concrete pontoons, this composite design offers reduced weight and improved cost efficiency, while the FRP exterior provides excellent corrosion resistance in marine environments. By combining the structural strength of concrete with the corrosion resistance and impact resistance of FRP, the pontoon provides enhanced safety and resistance to wave loads and impact. The interior is divided by watertight bulkheads and incorporates buoyancy compartments designed to localize damage and limit water ingress. This compartmentalized design helps maintain reserve buoyancy and keeps the pontoon afloat even if part of the structure is damaged.

A composite pontoon system designed for enhanced safety, strength, and reduced weight.

• The flexibility of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) helps absorb impacts and reduce damage.
• The concrete upper deck provides rigidity and helps minimize deformation.
• The hybrid structure combines the lightweight properties and corrosion resistance of FRP with the strength and rigidity of concrete.
• Internal bulkheads and buoyancy units help resist external impacts, localize damage, and maintain buoyancy even after partial damage.
• The structure provides excellent resistance to marine corrosion and wave loads.
