DVG is redefining marine sustainability with our Harbour fender systems. Our solutions prioritize long-lasting performance and reduced environmental impact. Current solutions for quay fenders are largely based on the use of discarded tires from rolling stock in various sizes.These solutions contribute to pollution in the surrounding environment.Our solution is to replace this with a new type of fender that offers better functionality, reduces environmental pollution,and is manufactured in Norway.This will contribute to a more environmentally friendly and sustainable upgrade of quay infrastructure.
Our vessel fender systems are engineered to meet the highest standards, providing protection for specialized vessels like the MV Balder. Delivered successfully, these fenders demonstrate our expertise in designing customized, robust, and efficient solutions.
DVG is currently developing next-generation quay fender systems, replacing outdated rubber tires with a sustainable core material. These innovative systems are designed to minimize microplastic pollution and ensure reliable performance in harsh marine environments.
DVG introduces an innovative solution for injecting materials used in the aquaculture industry.
DVG is pioneering a sustainable quay fender solution to replace traditional rubber tires, a significant source of microplastics. Each year, Norway produces approximately 8,000 tons of primary microplastics, with 2,250 tons stemming from car tires. By eliminating rubber tires from quay fender systems, we contribute to cleaner oceans and reduced environmental footprints.
The marine fender project is advancing steadily. Following the successful pilot project equipting the MV Balder, we are finalizing design concepts for harbor fenders. Aiming for greater sustainability.
The material is designed to resist water absorption, ensuring durability and reliability in challenging marine environments.
Engineered to withstand hydrostatic pressures, ensuring reliability for deep-water applications.
This solution aims to replace conventional materials, significantly reducing the release of microplastics and nanoplastics into the environment.
With superior durability compared to existing solutions, this material offers long-term performance and lower maintenance requirements.
In collaboration with our partner we are leveraging a scalable solution for material recycling. Starting with a functional base model, this innovative approach allows for expansion as production volumes grow. Our technology utilizes a process with zero pollution impact, transforming the recycled materials into a versatile product with remarkable properties.
The material development is advancing steadily. The first test casting was successfully marking an important milestone in evaluating the performance of our injection equiptment and logistical solutions.
