Marine fenders, which are also called the marine bumper, are majorly used to prevent ships, boats, and other naval vessels from colliding with each other or against docks, wharves, and piers. Several types of marine fenders have emerged over the years to provide excellent utility in the area of water transportation. The increasing international trade and expansion of port terminals and exponential government & private investments in offshore construction activities are expanding the number of vessels, creating an immense need for marine fenders. However, the surging availability of inferior quality fenders and the need for frequent maintenance challenge their selection process, impeding market development. Market players are currently involved in R&D to implement metal skinning mechanisms for the improved mechanical performance of marine fenders. Pneumatic fenders are also gaining popularity due to their low cost and low maintenance. Companies have diversified their portfolio into other rubber and composite products and gained extensive knowledge and expertise in the fender market through partnerships with trade vessels and passenger cruises. Custom-made marine fender products are also provided according to customer requirements, produced with the best quality raw materials.
