Oil booms

At Pennel & Flipo, we have developed a very strong composite of PU and double-ply polyester to be used as permanent boom.
You can achieve easier deployment given the increased suppleness of our formulation.
Also, most competitors’ fabrics are press-coated, a process that allows threads to move to the surface of the coating, permitting water and pollutants to infiltrate, thereby reducing the abrasion resistance and the mechanical properties down the road.
Our process consists of laminating films of PU on 2 layers of weave, a process that ensures increased longevity. Given that the middle layer of the PU is protected by 2 weaves, it maintains its’ original properties over a much longer period of time.
We formulated a high end virgin Polyether PU, not blended, ensuring up to 3 times the abrasion resistance of competitive products. This heavy double-ply composite is not thermo-set, thereby allowing the welding of seams and accessories.
