UPi / PPI Type Marine Fenders

UPi Fender (Ultra Pi) is an advanced type of marine fender, designed to deliver superior performance in both energy absorption and compression capability. With its unique design, the UPi fender can compress up to 60% of its original height at rated deflection and up to 62.5% at maximum deflection. This results in significantly improved energy absorption—up to 12.7% higher compared to conventional fenders of the same size.

UPi fenders are especially suitable for berths handling large vessels, where maximum protection is required. They allow higher energy absorption while maintaining low reaction forces, thus ensuring greater safety and reducing the impact on port structures, even when accommodating heavy vessels.

Nguyen Tai Marine is proud to supply integrated fendering solutions with UPi fenders, fully compliant with international standards such as PIANC, ISO, and DNV. Our products ensure a long service life of 5–15 years (depending on operating conditions) and undergo strict quality control during production.

The combination of advanced UPi fender technology and Nguyen Tai’s customized solutions—including flexible installation methods such as chemical anchors or mechanical bolts—helps Vietnamese ports optimize safety and operational efficiency while reducing maintenance costs. Nguyen Tai provides a warranty of 3–5 years depending on port design requirements, ensuring customer confidence and long-term reliability.

Installation

Prepare the installation site and required tools: ensure clean concrete surfaces and no obstructions.
Anchor bolts: can be pre-embedded during concrete pouring or installed afterward using chemical anchors or Sika adhesive.
Place the fender: align bolt holes with anchor bolts, use cranes or boats to position heavy fenders.
Tighten bolts securely with torque-controlled tools.
Final inspection: verify accuracy and compliance with safety standards.
Regular maintenance and inspection ensure long service life.
