CUSTOM FLOTATION FOAM FOR DOCKS: EXTEND THE SERVICE LIFE OF OLD & NEW DOCKS

USCG-ACCEPTED POLYURETHANE FOAM FOR MARINAS, MUNICIPALITIES, & PRIVATE DOCKS

Traditional dock flotation methods—like hollow plastic drums or air tanks—are prone to leaks, cracks, and constant maintenance. Empire Foam Solutions installs closed-cell, pour-in-place polyurethane foam for docks that will extend the life of new and old docks alike.

Whether you are managing a commercial marina or a private waterfront, our foam solutions provide a long-lasting, low-maintenance alternative to traditional methods. Call us today—we’ll be happy to discuss your specific challenge.

WHY CHOOSE OUR POLYURETHANE FLOTATION FOAM FOR YOUR DOCKS

  • USCG-Accepted Performance: We use specialized formulations designed to meet rigorous USCG buoyancy standards and resist water absorption over decades of immersion.

  • Permanent Buoyancy: Unlike air-filled tanks, closed-cell dock foam cannot leak or sink, even if the outer shell is punctured by ice or debris.

  • Structural Dock Repair: We inject foam directly into existing structures to restore structural integrity at a fraction of the cost of total dock replacement.

  • Marine Grade Durability: Our foam is resistant to salt, gas, and oils, meeting rigorous standards for encapsulated dock floats.

  • Environmental Safety: We offer eco-friendly, water-blown formulations that are safe for freshwater and saltwater environments.

CUSTOM APPLICATIONS FOR EVERY WATERFRONT

Every project is engineered based on the specific buoyancy requirements and water conditions of your site.

  • Marinas & Municipalities: Large-scale stabilization for heavy-traffic commercial slips.

  • Residential Docks: Permanent leveling for private swim platforms and boat docks.

  • Custom Fabrications: Seamlessly filling custom timber or steel flotation units.
