Inflatable offshore marker buoys
Inflatable offshore marker buoys are floating markers specially designed for open sea conditions, where waves, wind, and currents are stronger than in sheltered waters. They are used to mark navigation areas, anchorage fields, intervent(ion or work zones, while ensuring high visibility from a distance for ships and boats operating on the high seas.

These buoys are large, sturdy inflatable columns that are highly visible at sea. They are made of reinforced PVC that is resistant to UV rays, salt, and marine stress. Equipped with inflation valves and attachment points for ballasting, they can be installed for long periods or for temporary marking.

Available sizes (examples):

  • diameter 150 cm × height 200 cm: intermediate size for general buoyage on the high seas.
  • diameter 180 cm × height 180 cm: good stability with a height suitable for visibility.
  • diameter 250 cm × height 350 cm: very large size for signaling areas at a great distance or highly exposed.

These different sizes allow the buoys to be adapted to the scale of the area to be marked or the intensity of maritime traffic. A taller and wider buoy will be more visible and stable in rougher conditions, while an intermediate model may be sufficient for less extensive landmarks.
