A solution to the situation of emergency oil spills. Meet the Inflatable Oil Boom.
Inflatable oil boom is an air-inflated barrier that is stored on a boom reel and deployed rapidly on the water powered by a backpack blower system in emergency oil spills situations. Engineered to be stored in not necessary situations, self inflating boom can be ideal for projects where the storage space is limited.

Engineered with a PVC sheet that the float units are mounted on, permanent oil containment boom provides high durability, visibility, and long-term stability with no requirement of ballast.
Permanent oil boom can efficiently be used in waters with short to extended wave exposure and low to strong tidal flow.
Inflatable oil boom is the best solution to emergency oil spill response where a rapid temporary deployment is required. In some cases, a permanent oil boom is not efficient because of the rare oil spills. Powered by a blower system, inflatable oil containment boom rapidly inflates by air and deploys on the water to control oil spills and stores on a boom reel when it is not necessary. Therefore, self inflating boom is ideal for spill response teams, industrial marine terminals, and emergency service providers where self-deployment, speed, mobility, and reliability are priorities.
In emergency situations, there is no time to deploy and install an oil boom. The oil spills cover the entire water surface fast and pollute the marinas. Permanent oil booms are also not a good choice because oil spills may occur in a few situations during the long term. Offering a self inflating boom with a blower system that filled the boom with air rapidly and deployed it on the water is the best solution to address these challenges. Whenever oil spills occur, the inflatable oil boom is deployed to contain oil spills and stored on a boom reel, waiting for the next emergency situation. This solution not only suits the projects with emergency response demands but also for the ones where the storage space is limited.
Inflatable oil boom is designed with Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) or Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) fabric to ensure maximum oil containment with no leakage. The fabrics are also durable enough to resist in direct sunlight, optimized with UV-resistant materials. The HDG chain of the inflatable oil containment boom also acts as a ballast to keep the barrier buoyant on the water and ensure its high performance.
