Bureau Veritas has awarded ‘Type Approved’ status to all QuayQuip BV’s primary fender types, to both the PIANC 2002 and ASTM F-2192-05 guidelines.

This double approval is the first of its kind for a fender manufacturer and includes the following QuayQuip products: QCN Cone Fenders, QCL Cell Fenders, QME Elements, QSA and QPA Arch Fenders, and QCY Cylindrical Fenders. Another first was the approval of twin cone fenders mounted back-to-back: an arrangement used in PMF Parallel Movement Fender systems.

QuayQuip is also the first fender maker to publish information for berth designers in the ‘clear and transparent’ format recommended by PIANC.
