Containment booms are the first line of defence in any spill response plan. When a spill occurs, swift and effective containment is crucial to minimise environmental impact and financial loss. Selecting the right type of containment boom is key to ensuring a successful response.

At SpillPro, we're committed to helping businesses safeguard the environment and maintain regulatory compliance. Our range of containment booms address a variety of spill scenarios, ensuring that businesses are equipped to manage any spill, big or small.

Different Booms for Different Needs

The type of spill and environmental conditions significantly impact the choice of containment boom:

  • Water Flow: For fast-moving waters, our NOFI Current Buster is specifically designed to handle high-speed currents. In calmer waters, more standard boom options may suffice.
  • Weather and Sea State: Harsh weather conditions and rough seas demand robust, reinforced booms, while calmer waters allow for lighter, more flexible options.

Containment Boom Solutions

To meet a wide range of spill scenarios, we offer a variety of containment boom options:

  • NOFI Current Buster: Engineered to withstand high-speed water conditions, the NOFI Current Buster is specifically designed for major spills in tidal rivers and coastal areas. This cutting-edge boom offers superior performance, rapid deployment, and exceptional oil capture capabilities, making it the most effective solution for large-scale oil spill disasters.
