It’s not often that a revolutionary system is developed for the marine industry and is rarer that such technology is certified and cost effective.

 

The marine construction industry has used barges for decades as a major component when working on the waterways throughout the world. With many restraints and obstacles to overcome, barges, large and small have been utilized to carry, hold, and as platforms for maritime construction equipment. There a many types and sizes of barges designed to do specific applications.

Smaller portable barges, also known as sectional or truckable barges were designed to get into places where larger barges can not navigate. These barges have always had  load restrictions, assembling problems, and dismantling issues.  

Large barges have their own restrictions when used in certain waterways. Navigation and storage problems have been costly when not in use. Large barges when built have to be transported via tug pulled or dragged to its destination. This type of shipping and delivery is very costly. In some cases into the millions of dollars.

We offer solutions that can be incorporated into any existing barge design and connect them as one platform. A connection system that will change the way barges and other equipment are linked together. This worldwide patented tough linking system is designed and manufactured to your specifications and applications.

 

This national and international patented tough link system has been tested and certified on several designs and strengths. Our latest test put our connector exceeding 200 tons per connector.  With this knowledge and using this patented linking system and placing connectors along any size barge will connect them as one!

 

The applications are endless.  This patented connecting system has allowed us to introduce a tough link barge which can be built to any size. A small portable, sectional, and truckable barge to carry heavier loads. The medium size barge utilizing our connecting system can be shipped and delivered with huge savings. When delivered it can be assembled into a large barge. When the project is over the connected barge system can be disassemble with ease and without destroying the barge.
