RELIABLE FOAM SOLUTIONS FOR BARGES
Barges take on heavy loads and harsh conditions. Over time, waterlogged compartments and aging flotation can compromise performance, safety, and efficiency. Polyurethane flotation foam is perfect for preserving the integrity of new barges and reinforcing the strength of aged barges. Empire Foam Solutions provides closed-cell polyurethane barge flotation foam to restore buoyancy and extend the service life of your vessel—at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
