UHMW-PE
FACINGS
Trelleborg FQ1000 ultra high
molecular weight polyethylene
(UHMW-PE) is the first choice
material for facing steel fender
panels and other heavy duty
applications. It combines very
low friction with excellent impact
strength and a wear resistance much
better than steel.
Most popular is FQ1000-DS
which is double-sintered and workhardened for extra durability. The
standard colour is black, but if other
colours are needed then FQ1000-V
virgin grade also comes in yellow,
white, grey, blue, green and red.
FQ1000 UHMW-PE materials are
compounded to resist ozone and UV
radiation. They do not degrade or rot
and are easily recycled at the end of
their useful service life.

SLIDING
FENDERS
HD-PE Sliding Fenders are the ideal
alternative to timber facings with
the added advantage of low-friction
and better wear properties. HD-PE
does not split or decay and is totally
resistant to borers.
Environmentally friendly, HD-PE
can be used instead of tropical
hardwoods, lasts much longer, and
can be fully recycled at the end of its
useful life.

SEAPILE &
SEATIMBER
SeaPile and SeaTimber are advanced
composite plastics with superior
properties to timber, steel and
concrete for many marine structures
and applications.
They can withstand heavy impacts
by absorption of energy through
recoverable deflection. SeaPile and
SeaTimber never rot, corrode or
decay. They are impervious to marine
borers, yet are totally non-polluting.
Manufactured from a recycled
plastic matrix with unique glass fibre
reinforcement bars, the stiffness of
SeaPile and SeaTimber can be varied
and controlled to suit each project.
This makes the material the ideal
choice for fenders, to build marine
structures, and for coastal protection
without damaging the environment.

SEACAMEL
Floating camels are used in many
military and commercial ports to
maintain standoff between the
vessel and pier face. They also
transmit forces over a greater length
of structure to avoid concentrated
loads.
SeaCamels are constructed from
SeaPile, SeaTimber or Ecoboard
engineered plastics, which combine
high strength with positive buoyancy
and will not crush, split, corrode or
decay.
SeaCamels are available in many
configurations, either preassembled
or in kit form. They can be fitted with
access decks and face fenders as
well as a variety of mooring options.

ECOBOARD
Ecoboard structures outlast any wood or wood flour
plastic composites, lowering your costs for years to come.
Ecoboard is maintenance-free and needs zero care, and
because Ecoboard doesnt deteriorate even in extreme
environments, the ongoing cost of treating and repairing
materials becomes a thing of the past.
Ecoboard is durable and versatile. The SR and SF
grades are both based on the same 100% recycled and
carefully graded polyethylene which is non-toxic and
stable. Whether strengthened with chopped glass fibres
(SF) or with high performance glass fibre rebars (SR),
Ecoboard comes in many standard and custom sections
to suit light, medium and heavy duty applications.
Ecoboard looks great too. With a choice of natural
or textured finishes in popular UV-stabilised colours,
designers can be confident that their Ecoboard structures
will stay looking good for decades to come no cracking
or chipping, no warping or corrosion, no mould or decay.
And if that still isnt enough to convince you to use
Ecoboard for your next project then maybe Trelleborgs 50
year limited warranty will.

Ecoboard
Ecoboard is made from recycled
polyethylene, reinforced with
chopped glass fibre or GRP
rebars. It doesnt rot, split or
chip, and is ideal for long term
immersion in water.

Wood
All wood suffers environmental
attack, sometimes reduced by
periodic chemical treatments.
Wood can crack, split and splinter,
is eaten by borers and suffers
fungal and bacterial decay.

Sustainability
Sustai
Sustainability is about economic growth,
soc
social development and a healthy
environment. Within Trelleborg the
ethos of sustainability involves
everybody and everything we do
or make, becoming a natural part
of our daily business operations.
Ecoboard is a perfect example. Made from recycled
raw materials in a clean and energy efficient factory. It is
toxin-free, inert and non-polluting. Ecoboard is long lasting
but even at the end of its useful service life it can be fully
recycled and used again.
