FAQS

Watercraft safety booms are typically used in a variety of aquatic environments where there is a need to protect people, vessels and infrastructure from hazardous areas or to manage water traffic. Common locations include dams, weirs, reservoirs and waterways, where they help prevent boats from entering dangerous zones or restricted areas.

Watercraft safety booms help improve safety in waterways by acting as physical barriers that prevent boats, kayaks and other watercraft from entering hazardous areas such as dams, weirs and spillways, significantly reducing the risk of accidents and injuries. These booms are designed to be highly visible and robust, ensuring that even drifting or disabled vessels are stopped before reaching dangerous zones.

Some of our safety booms also feature floats and ropes that allow people in distress to climb aboard or reach the shore unaided, further enhancing rescue capabilities. By clearly demarcating restricted areas and providing an effective means of keeping both the public and watercraft away from potential hazards, safety booms play a crucial role in creating safer waterways for everyone.

Watercraft safety booms are highly customizable to meet the specific safety requirements and environmental conditions of different waterways. Customization options include the addition of reflective strips, warning signage, access gates, branding and integrated safety features such as grab handles, casualty lifelines and demarcation lighting. Advanced models can also incorporate sensors, alarms and cameras for real-time monitoring and enhanced security.

Yes, you can customize the booms by adding your logo, colors or other branding elements to match your specific needs and represent your brand effectively.

Watercraft safety booms are primarily designed to ensure the safety of people and watercraft by preventing access to hazardous areas. However, they can also help stop large debris, such as tree trunks, from crossing into dangerous zones.

If your primary concern is the management of various types of marine debris and pollution, we offer Debris Booms that are specifically designed for this purpose.

Watercraft safety booms are designed for minimal maintenance, but regular checks are still important to ensure their effectiveness and longevity. Routine maintenance typically involves inspecting the booms for any signs of wear or damage, ensuring all parts and attachments are secure. Overall, maintenance is straightforward and can usually be performed with simple tools, making these booms a practical and low-maintenance safety solution for waterways.

For precise selection and design, we recommended consult our team.We use specialized tools and calculators (such as Boomforce) to analyze your site conditions and recommend the most suitable solution based on your unique scenario.

FAQS

Ecofloat Floating Pontoons are modular platforms designed to float on water, providing stable surfaces for events, swimming barriers, walkways and more. They are widely used for temporary or permanent installations on lakes, rivers and coastal areas.

Ecofloat pontoon barriers are made from high-molecular-weight high-density polyethylene (HMWHDPE), known for its high durability.

Pontoon barriers enhance water safety in recreational areas by clearly marking zones in open water. They separate swimming areas from boating or jetski zones, helping prevent accidents. Their high visibility improves navigation and allows lifeguards to monitor areas more effectively. By guiding traffic and controlling access, they reduce the risk of collisions and promote safer waterfront spaces.

Yes, Ecofloat Pontoon Barriers are fully modular and can be assembled into various shapes and sizes. This flexibility allows for customization to fit specific site layouts, including event platforms, walkways, swimming enclosures or docking platforms.

The timeline for a turnkey solution – from design and layout to installation and removal –depends on the project scope, site conditions and regulatory approvals. For event applications, we typically handle the entire process efficiently and can deliver a fully installed solution within a few days to a couple of weeks (fireworks pontoons), ensuring everything is ready on time and removed promptly after your event.

HMWHDPE (High Molecular Weight High-Density Polyethylene) is chosen for Ecofloat Pontoon Barriers because of its exceptional durability, strength and resistance to harsh environmental conditions. This material is highly resistant to UV radiation, corrosion and impact, making it ideal for prolonged outdoor and marine use. HMWHDPE pontoons are also lightweight and virtually maintenance-free. Their robust construction ensures long-lasting performance, stability and safety, even in demanding applications such as swimming barriers, event platforms and marina docks.

Yes, our floating pontoons are engineered to safely support both pedestrian traffic and small watercraft. Our pontoons can handle a load capacity of up to 300 kg/m² at 100% capacity and 150 kg/m² at 50% capacity per single layer, making them ideal for walkways, event platforms and docks for jetskis, kayaks and other small boats. This robust load-bearing capability ensures stable and secure access for people and watercraft, even in demanding event or marina settings.

FAQS

People Safety Booms, also known as swimming barriers, are floating systems designed to create secure boundaries in aquatic environments. They prevent watercraft and other hazards from entering designated safe areas, ensuring the safety of swimmers, beachgoers and water enthusiasts.

By effectively segregating swimming zones, regulating water traffic and providing a physical barrier against marine hazards, People Safety Booms play a crucial role in ensuring a safer and more enjoyable aquatic experience for everyone.

We offer a comprehensive range of People Safety Booms, tailored to various aquatic safety needs:

Bolina Beach Safety Booms – Ideal for keeping smaller watercraft such as canoes, kayaks and paddleboards at a safe distance from swimming areas.
Bolina Beach Safety Net Booms – Prevent marine traffic from entering while providing a net barrier against jellyfish.
Bolina Shark Safety Net Booms – Effectively deter sharks from entering designated swimming zones.
Ecobarrier Jellyfish Safety Nets – Protect swimmers from jellyfish within confined areas.
Ecobarrier Swimming Safety Barriers – Ensure complete segregation of swimming areas from surrounding marine environments.
Bolina Ball Safety Barriers– Deter small to medium-sized marine traffic from entering restricted areas.

Bolina Ball Safety Barriers are ideal for areas with high marine traffic or challenging environmental conditions. Their distinctive spherical floats sit higher on the water, providing greater visibility than other types of People Safety Booms.

We also offer Watercraft Safety Booms, the preferred choice of environmental and navigation authorities across the United Kingdom. These booms are specifically engineered for locations with heavy marine traffic, offering reliable protection and clear demarcation.

The expected lifespan of People Safety Booms primarily depends on the specific marine environment, and most importantly, the level of maintenance they receive. At Ecocoast, all our People Safety Booms come standard with antifouling treatment, which is a significant advantage for longevity and reduced marine growth.

People Safety Booms can be tailored with a wide range of add-ons and customizations to suit specific site requirements and enhance both safety and functionality.

Common options include:
●Demarcation buoys to clearly mark the boundaries of swimming zones, improving visibility for swimmers and watercraft.
●Lighting systems such as reflective strips or Ecobarrier Light Buoys to increase visibility at night or in low-light conditions, enhancing safety for both swimmers and boaters.
●Line strength options: Standard and Premium heavy-duty lines are available, offering varying levels of durability and resistance to impact.
●Ecofloat Pontoons: Additional floating platforms can be integrated for leisure purposes or as access points for maintenance and rescue operations.
