Bolina Watercraft Safety Booms create an impenetrable safety barrier to prevent all watercraft from passing through.
The booms are designed for easy and rapid assembly to customer-specified lengths using ordinary tools, providing a cost-effective solution with long-term low maintenance. Thanks to the weight and size of each boom module, there is no risk of it being lifted by hand to permit passage underneath it.
The boom’s orientation is adjustable, allowing skilled canoeists to pass while safely restraining novices, preventing potential issues with kayaks or other light crafts downstream. Developed in collaboration with the coaching staff of the British Canoe Union.
Boomforce, our proprietary calculator, is tailored for analyzing and designing boom structures in various scenarios, including environmental and incidental conditions.

Bolina Rope Safety Booms are ideal for flood defense and navigation authorities to protect lives, watercraft and structures.
They are designed to meet the rigorous conditions specified by the UK Environment Agency, guaranteeing the highest level of safety and performance standards.
The booms consist of a series of guard piles spaced up to 10 meters apart with floats supporting two ropes that provide constant freeboard and air draft.
The innovative design of the float allows for up to two casualties to climb aboard without the need for ladders, while the ropes enable people in distress to reach the shore unaided. Even more impressively, the floats are designed to follow the water level for maximum safety and effectiveness.

Case Studies
Our PHILOSOPHYTo be your turnkey partner throughout every stage of the marine barrier lifecycle, addressing your coastal and waterway challenges with a commitment to prioritizing performance, longevity and sustainability.
Designing a product properly is crucial for success, but it is often neglected. Choosing a product or solution without the right design lowers the chances of success. We identify the problem, collaborate on the best solution and analyze data using specialized software to determine the needed material properties for optimal performance.
Correct installation is crucial for project success. Improper installation can strain barriers, even with the right design and product. Our products are designed for specialized handling, with loads concentrated correctly. This phase also includes on-site maintenance and repair. Proactive maintenance catches small issues early, extending material lifespan and reducing wastage at the project’s end.
The software outputs help us select the right product by making sure it meets design parameters and is made correctly with the right materials and methods. We also consider end-of-life planning, installation and maintenance. Choosing the wrong product can complicate the implementation phase.
This stage covers everything from proper removal and storage to repairing or recycling the product. Proper removal is crucial; it can determine whether the product becomes a reusable asset or ends up in a landfill. Even if the product reaches the end of its life, our barriers are 100% recyclable, ensuring we help you divert 100% from landfill.
