Trelleborg secures new contract with Salerno Port

Trelleborg Marine Systems has secured a new contract to supply Super Cone Fenders and Tee Head bollards to Salerno Port in Italy.

Salerno Port in Italy is benefitting from Trelleborg’s expertise in fenders and bollards.

Trelleborg worked with RCM Costruzioni to meet very stringent design parameters that included restricted space for the cone fender due to a limited high capping beam.

The 34 sets of SCN1300 Super Cone Fender Systems and 24 sets of Tee Head bollards are due for delivery at the port next month.

“Due to Trelleborg’s strong reputation and technical qualification, they are already a preferred supplier for both the port authorities and us, the contractor,” said Mr. Elio Rainone of RCM Costruzioni.

“The solution provided by Trelleborg Marine Systems met the requirements of both parties: the port authorities wanted a reliable solution, with a long life cycle. For us, an important factor was the necessity of an accessible dedicated project management team, and the assurance of high quality aftercare.”

The fenders supplied by Trelleborg are fully compliant with PIANC’s 2002 ’Guidelines for the design of fender systems’ and have undergone both laboratory and full scale product testing.
