Material for Boat Materials
Elastomer-coated fabrics are used for the manufacture of inflatable boats and constructions in a wide range of dimensions, intended for both recreational and professional applications.
They include:
- Classic inflatable boats
- Inflatable boats with rigid floors
- Rigid Inflatable Boats (RIBs)
All solutions are tailored to the specific application through the appropriate selection of reinforcement carriers such as polyester (PES), polyamide (PA), and para-aramid, as well as coating materials consisting of elastomer compounds predominantly based on synthetic and natural rubber.
- Marine service boats
- Sports boats
- Ship's boats
- Lifeboats
- Military boats
- (Temporary) bridges and ferries
- Extremely hard-wearing and tear-resistant
- Resistant to weathering, UV exposure and seawater
- Dimensionally stable and wear-resistant
- Available in 6 standard colors and many special colors
- Lightweight to heavy-duty constructions for a wide variety of applications
