Concrete Breakwater Type SF 300, 400, 500, 600

SF Marina System Ab has been designing and manufacturing floating concrete breakwaters since 1984 after many years of manufacturing large concrete pontoons. We have installed them in a wide variety of sites in quite adverse conditions with no failure to date. The units installed are performing the functions we have designed for with great success. Our breakwaters are specifically designed for and are required to be moored with chains, sinkers and anchors.

Our Marina installation in Acapulco which is protected by one of our floating breakwaters was exposed to the hurricane Pauline some years ago without any damage. And the hurricane Floyd passed through our Marina installation at Charleston last september without any damage.

The geometry of this pontoons, in combination with our patented coupling and an advanced mooring system, makes our floating breakwater an excellent wave attenuator. This pontoons have been developed gradually over a number of years and today there are numerous reference-installations in use both in Sweden and abroad. The breakwaters from SF MARINA are all-concrete pontoons with all the advantages of high stability and buoyancy. The all concrete and styrofoam construction of the pontoon produces a very high degree of buoyancy thus making it virtually unsinkable. As a result of the use of high quality materials, coupled with a thorough manufacturing process, the pontoon enjoys a long life-span. Each standard pontoon is designed to accept electrical and water supply services. Normally, the pontoons would be moored using chains and blocks. This pontoons are first and foremost as a floating breakwater. However, they can be used universally where the potential of a pontoon having high stability and freeboard can be utilized.
