The Donut system uses a floating ring-shaped fender which rises and falls with the water level on a central steel pile, guided by low-friction pads. The Donut system’s ability to rotate helps reduce shear forces in both fender and dolphin and allows vessels to move fore and aft (warp) along the fender.
Features
* Rotates freely
* Rises and falls with water level
* High energy absorption with low reaction force
* Very easy installation
* Low maintenance

Sea Guard fenders are unlike any other foam or pneumatic fender because they can be suspended from the dock face or floated to suit the berth structure and tide range.
Sea Guard fenders have an extra strong filament reinforced skin which is gentle on ship hulls and does not exert high localised pressures like fenders fitted with chain/tyre nets.
Many standard and custom sizes are available using regular, high energy or low reaction foam grades.
Sea Guard fenders can be made in almost any colour. They are unsinkable and virtually indestructible. Low maintenance and long service life make Sea Guard fenders the preferred choice of commercial and navy customers.
Features
* Standard and custom sizes
* Regular, high energy and low reaction options
* Use suspended or floating
* Virtually indestructible
* No chain/tyre net required
* Any colour, all non-marking
* Unsinkable design

Submarines and other vessels that contact fenders below the waterline require a unique solution. Hydro-pneumatic fenders are specially adapted to this application. The fender body is partially water-filled, then pressurised with air and ballasted to make it stand vertically. Fender draft and performance can be tuned by altering the water:air ratio and the inflation pressure.
Features
* Sub-surface contact face
* Very low hull pressure
* Variable draft
* Prevents accoustic tile damage

Fender Bars can resist high impacts and are suitable for a wide range of general purpose applications. They are available in three different versions:
* ML-type for exposed locations
* MLS-type for low reaction
* Delta PU for visibility and non-marking
ML Fender Bars
The ML Fender Bar are intended for heavy duty applications – everything from ferry berths to bumpers on barges. The vulcanised internal steel plate provides very strong fixing points and reduces bending moments in the bolts.
MLS Fender Bars
MLS Fender Bars have a special modified profile to reduce reaction forces and allow a high degree of flexibility in all directions. Being softer, MLS Fender Bars are ideal for protecting smaller workboats, pontoons and load-sensitive structures.
Delta PU Bars
The Delta PU Bar meets the challenges of berthing light craft with aluminium or GRP hulls by combining high performance and low friction properties in a competitively priced unit. Available in highly visible, non-marking colours, the Delta PU Bar can also improve safety or demarcate berths and danger areas.

On high performance systems, fender panels are just as important as the rubber units. That's why every Fentek panel is purpose designed using structural analysis prograsms and 3D CAD modelling for optimum strength.
Fender panels distribute reaction forces to provide low hull pressures and cope with large tidal variations. They can also be designed to resist line loads from belted ships, or even point loads in special cases. Optional lead-in bevels reduce the snagging risk, whilst brackets (where required) provide highly secure connection points for chains.
Features and options
* Closed box steel structure
* Internal structural members
* Blind boss fender connections
* Pressure tested for watertightness
* C5M modified epoxy paint
* Polyurethane topcoat (RAL5005 blue)
* Studs for UHMW-PE face pads
* Chain brackets
* Lifting points
* Lead-in bevels and chamfers

Trellex V-fenders fulfil the need for a simple, and maintenance-free fender system with high performance and a robust design at low costs. All V-fenders use one or several pairs of MV-elements and a front shield. The shield is a structural component of the fender, directly bolted to the MV‑element and easily able to withstand constant use in busy harbours.
The UHMW-PE face is also very gentle on ships. It will conform to the contours of the hull, will not mark paint (unlike rubber) and does not spark. UHMW-PE has very low friction which reduces stresses in the V‑fenders and fixings.
Features
* Modular design system
* Many standard sizes
* High performance geometry
* Recessed fixings
* Long life, low maintenance

Trellex Ramp and Cope Protectors are special wedge-shaped rubber elements which are fitted together to form a flexible extension to steel and concrete structures. Their internal steel plate gives a strong connection and the grooved rubber face provides a high friction surface that prevents slipping.
Ramp Protectors
Used as Ramp Protectors, they allow easy loading and unloading of vehicles and trailers whilst protecting the front edge of the ramp from wear. Noise levels are also much lower compared to steel ramps. Ramp Protectors weigh much less than steel too – so they are easier to install and place less stress on the structure.
Cope Protectors
Used as Cope Protectors, the elements form a flexible extension to the cope or top edge of the quay. This reduces the gap between quay face and ship where loose or bulk cargoes can fall into the harbour. Cope Protectors are also flexible, so will bend out of the way if hit by a ship during berthing.
