For waterfront force protection the FOXX floating barrier consists of independent modules - the high-tensile MAXX spiral rope nets from Geobrugg - which are connected to each other so as to absorb the water movements and permit compensation of the changes in water level. Due to its very low drag, this floating security fence is very well suited for gate functions.
Key benefits of Geobrugg Waterside protection barriers include:
- Proven high boat-stopping capability (realistic full-scale test)
- Over or under passing of attacking boats is not possible
- Low maintenance, high durability and easy inspection
- Good security visibility (no hiding behind barrier)
- UV, fire, blast and gunshot resistance
- Designed to specific needs and local conditions
