Defenda
Advanced Superyacht Fenders
All of our yacht fenders are made from military-grade, high-tensile Polyester laminate which provides unbeatable strength and abrasion resistance.
Double-layer premium webbing attachment points and a rugged D7 inflation valve are fitted. All DEFENDA fenders can be swiftly inflated or deflated, reducing volume by 90% and freeing up storage space.
DEFENDA fenders are backed by a ten-year guarantee, which means that they are built to last and owners can have confidence in their durability and longevity.
Rigorously tested for extreme loads: DEFENDA fenders are designed to withstand extreme tensile and compression loads without failure or damage.
This means that they are reliable and can provide maximum safety when docking even the largest sail or motor yachtsHigh-tensile Polyester laminate material:
DEFENDA fenders are made from a high-tensile Polyester laminate material that is developed for military applications. This material is lighter and stronger than other inflatable fenders on the market, making DEFENDA fenders a great option for superyacht owners who value strength and durability.
Incredibly strong, yet lightweight and easily stored.
Continuous design innovation has ensured that our products represent the very best fender solutions for large yachts.
Designed and manufactured in Europe, DEFENDA™ inflatable fenders are incredibly strong, yet lighter in weight and less bulky than other fenders when deflated.
Twin reinforcement bands provide additional strength and abrasion resistance. The attachment loops are double thickness Polyester webbing; they are incredibly strong, yet won’t chip or damage paintwork. Larger diameter fenders have a three-point fixing to both ends as standard.
Technology
Manufactured from a high-tensile Polyester laminate, developed for military applications, a DEFENDA™ is lighter and stronger than other inflatable fenders.
Laser cut panels are High Frequency Welded, creating a molecular bond. Seams are stronger than the fabric itself and guaranteed not to leak. This state-of-the-art process also reduces seam thickness, making fenders much easier to pack for storage.
Our new low-profile inflation valve is incredibly strong, with improved inflation and deflation speeds and an enhanced clamping method.
Function
Designed for ease of storage and rapid deployment, we have significantly reduced the weight and deflated volume of our fenders.
Reducing to only 10% of its inflated volume when stowed, DEFENDA™ allows you to carry the size and quantity of fenders you need. Much lighter than other large fenders, they are easily handled by all crew members and can be quickly moved around the deck when berthing.
Available in a wide range of standard sizes, custom projects can also be made to order.
FENDASKIN
Sustainable Bioprene Fender Covers
To complement our fenders, we have developed the next generation FENDASKIN, now using Bioprene* to deliver a truly sustainable product. FENDASKIN covers are tight fitting, with a smooth surface, so they won’t trap grit or salt crystals against the hull. Additionally, they don’t soak up water or stretch, like a traditional knitted cover, and take up much less volume when stowed. Currently only available in Black, FENDASKIN offer outstanding performance and a sleek, contemporary appearance. They are reversible and guaranteed not to fade for two years.
Typically, end-of-life Neoprene covers are destined for landfill, so we have partnered with Circular Flow, a ground breaking organisation, that has opened Europe’s first Neoprene recycling facility. As a result, we can now offer customers the opportunity to dispose of their old Neoprene covers or wetsuits responsibly, creating a fully sustainable solution for the manufacture and disposal of fender covers.
