The Dunlop GRG’s Low Pressure Pneumatic Fender is the preferred option for ship-to-ship and ship-to-shore berthing of naval vessels. Unlike other Fenders, it is designed to spread berthing forces over a large area, achieving a far lower load reaction per unit. This makes the Dunlop Fender ideal for naval vessels whose thin hulls and sensitive electronical systems need protection and careful berthing.
Although tough enough to withstand the most hostile environments, the Dunlop Fender is relatively lightweight and can easily be deflated and stored on board for re-use at each port of call.
