Permanent Containment Booms
For long-term floating debris and marine pollution control
Permanent containment booms provide a heavy-duty floating barrier for long-term debris and marine pollution control. Designed for marinas, ports, rivers, lakes, and industrial waterways, these rugged floating boom barriers contain marine debris, aquatic plants, trash, and floating pollutants. Engineered for superior durability, our permanent floating containment booms last up to six times longer than conventional boom systems. Marine growth and UV inhibitors reduce maintenance and weathering, ensuring dependable, low-cost performance for years to come.

Permanent containment boom details
Our permanent debris booms are built for long-term containment of trash, aquatic plants, and floating pollutants. These floating boom barriers can be deployed to either prevent debris from entering a protected zone or contain pollutants for later removal. Marine-grade connectors and high-impact bolts keep the boom secure even in active water conditions. UV and marine growth inhibitors prevent fouling and extend the boom’s operational life.

Applications for permanent containment booms
Seaweed barrier
An influx of seaweed and sargassum can impact beaches, recreational lakes, and marinas. Parks and recreation departments use permanent containment booms to intercept floating plants, allowing for easy collection and disposal, and improving waterfront aesthetics.
Trash barrier
Floating debris can obstruct water intake systems in dams and municipal treatment plants. A permanent debris boom prevents debris from damaging equipment and reduces costly maintenance and potential shutdowns.
Debris boom for harbors and marinas
Public harbors and marinas face challenges from floating aquatic plants and trash that interfere with vessels. Permanent debris booms keep these materials away from docks, pilings, and sensitive infrastructure.

Permanent Boom Floating Barrier Frequently Asked Questions
The price of a permanent containment boom depends on boom size, deployment location, water conditions, and project duration. Contact our sales team for a detailed quote tailored to your site.
Yes. Permanent containment booms are highly effective at controlling seaweed and sargassum. When deployed offshore, they intercept floating plant mats before they reach beaches, allowing for controlled collection and disposal.
