TECHNICAL
Optimized structural behavior.
The buoy body is rotationally moulded from UV-stabilised virgin polyethylene as a single piece. This process leaves no seams, welds or joints — critical for long-term performance in aggressive marine conditions. Eight standard models span MB300 to MB4000: diameter 900–1,600 mm, height 900–2,500 mm, volume 300–4,000 litres, mooring load 150–2,000 kg.
The full internal cavity is filled with closed-cell foamed polyurethane or polystyrene — the buoy stays afloat even after the body is punctured. The central tarred-chain passage distributes mooring load evenly into the body and speeds up rigging on site. Steel hardware (top and bottom rings, connection fittings) is hot-dip galvanised.
Day-mark colouring is applied to IALA recommendations depending on the use case; an optional solar LED flashing lantern can be integrated at the buoy top. Buoy selection requires weight of mooring equipment, accessories to be installed and the focal height required above water — all evaluated together. ASAKUA supports product selection and on-site rigging; as an IALA member we track marine aids to navigation standards.
