VISION 
GENERAL

Pontoons

Pontoons are floating structures designed for a variety of uses, from supporting construction to transporting heavy cargo. Composed of floats or hulls, they are often used in marine construction, temporary bridges, work platforms and events. Their versatility and load capacity make them valuable for coastal and riverine projects, providing a stable platform for diverse operations. The variety of sizes and configurations allows adaptation to different needs, while continuous innovation seeks to improve efficiency and sustainability.

Diverse Uses:

Support in Coastal and River Construction Projects:

  • Pontoons serve as temporary bases for machinery and equipment in maritime and river works.

  • They facilitate the construction of structures such as piers, piers and off-shore platforms.

Temporary Bridges to Facilitate Traffic:

  • Pontoons are used as temporary support for bridges during renovations, repairs or construction.

  • They allow traffic to flow while works are in progress.

Shallow Water Work Platforms:

  • They provide safe platforms for maintenance, inspection and repair operations in shallow waters.

  • Essential in places where fixed structures are not practical.

Composition and Functioning

Structure with Floats or Hulls:

  •  Floats or hulls support the structure and provide flotation.

  •  They allow movement on the water and platform stability.

Buoyancy Capacity for Different Loads:

  • Adapting the buoyancy capacity allows transport or support of varied loads.

  • Adjustable according to the needs of the project or operation.

Stability in Calm or Rough Waters:

  •  Pontoons are designed to withstand diverse maritime conditions while maintaining stability.

  •  They offer a secure base for operations in different scenarios.

Construction and Design:

Variety of Sizes and Configurations:

  •  Pontoons come in a wide range of sizes, from small to large complex ones.

  •  Configurations adapted for use, such as rectangular or modular platforms.

Customization for Specific Needs:

  • They are designed according to the demands of the project, with resources such as cranes, safety equipment, among others.

Use of Durable and Corrosion-Resistant Materials:

  • Materials such as stainless steel or composites are often used to ensure durability and minimize corrosion.

 

Applications in Construction:

Support for Maritime and River Constructions:

  • Pontoons offer bases for installing pillars, bridge supports, among others.

  • Essential for constructions in aquatic environments.

Platforms for Drilling and Installation Operations:

  • They are used as floating platforms for drilling operations, cable installation and other offshore projects.

Mobility and Transport:

Heavy Cargo Transport on Waterways:

  • Ability to transport heavy loads, such as industrial equipment, makes them valuable for river and coastal logistics.

Flexibility for Assembly and Disassembly:

  • Ease of assembly and disassembly allows quick mobilization to different locations or projects.

 

Events and Entertainment:

Scenarios for Water Events and Festivals:

  • Pontoons serve as floating stages for shows, sports competitions and other water events.

Spaces for Presentations and Temporary Exhibitions:

  • They offer platforms for exhibitions, fairs and temporary events in aquatic environments.

 

Innovations and Sustainability:

Advanced Technologies to Increase Efficiency:

  • Automation, control and monitoring systems improve operational efficiency.

Focus on Sustainability and Reducing Environmental Impacts:

  • Integration of sustainable technologies, such as solar panels and water treatment systems.
