All FLOATEX cylindrical, supporting and mooring buoys have been designed to withstand the severe operating conditions associated with offshore operations. To achieve these characteristics the inner buoyancy core is realized applying spiral bending sheets of expanded cross-linked polyethylene. The full closed-cell expanded Polyethylene used, guarantees the unsinkability of the buoy, also in case of accidental serious damages occurred during operations. The outer Polyurethane skin provides the necessary abrasion and ultra-violet rays resistance to the buoy. Standard outer colour is marine orange but,if requested, buoys can be manufactured in different colours.
