PERMA-BOOM
PERMA-BOOM FOR DEBRIS AND OIL CONTAINMENT
Floating Barriers Made For Long-Term Service
Perma-Boom is a specialized containment product widely utilized for controlling and managing spills in water bodies, typically deployed in oil spill response operations and other environmental containment strategies. It is designed with a durable PVC-coated polyester conveyor-belting membrane, engineered to withstand harsh conditions and contain pollutants effectively. It includes highly visible and unsinkable rotary molded polyethylene floats filled with closed-cell urethane foam. This hard shell float makes it completely different from standard barriers.
Perma-Boom systems are strategically installed in various locations to prevent the spread of contaminants, safeguarding marine ecosystems and water quality. These containment booms are predominantly used in areas such as fuel docks, shipyards, cargo terminals, and marinas where there is a risk of contamination due to spills or discharges. The Perma-Boom acts as a robust barrier, restricting the movement of pollutants and providing a critical response measure to environmental incidents. It is a versatile and cost-efficient solution, crucial for mitigating the impacts of pollutants on aquatic environments.
