Permanent Protection Barriers and Booms
Vikoma offers a range of barriers and booms which can be deployed permanently to protect inlets, outlets or channels in industrial applications such as refineries. They can be used to prevent pollutants escaping or entering industrial facilities.
Permanent booms are designed for long exposure deployment in sheltered waters. They do not require inflation and are durable and resistant to abrasion and marine growth.
All Vikoma Permanent Protection Booms include closed cell foam buoyancy members. This foam will ensure buoyancy is maintained even if the outer material is compromised. Barriers available in neoprene, polyurethane or PVC belt.
Our protection booms can be used in conjunction with our industrial skimming packages for a complete containment and recovery solution.
Boom Sliders/Anchor Pillars
Vikoma anchor pillars are designed to be used with Vikoma booms. They are used to secure booms to vertical walls and can be fitted to separators, inlets and outlets, drainage channels and culverts.
The systems are designed to automatically adjust to varying water levels so that pollutants are effectively contained awaiting recovery.
The anchor pillars and floats are manufactured in 316 grade stainless steel so that they can be used in arduous environments.
