Harbourguard Boom
The Trident Harbourguard Boom is a high-buoyancy containment boom designed to help control the spread of oil, fuel and other floating pollutants in harbours and open waters. Its foam-filled flotation section and weighted skirt support stable positioning during marine containment operations.
Built for demanding waterside environments, the boom combines closed-cell polyethylene foam floats with galvanised chain ballast. It can be supplied in alternative materials and connector configurations to suit the deployment requirements.

Product Details
Product Information
The Harbourguard Boom provides a floating barrier for protecting harbour waters and other marine environments from accidental pollution. A cylindrical, foam-filled float section keeps the boom buoyant, while the suspended skirt helps form a containment barrier below the waterline.
A galvanised chain serves as both ballast and a tension member, supporting boom stability and alignment. The design is suitable for harbour and open-water applications, with sizes available on enquiry.

Where can the Harbourguard Boom be used?
It is designed for harbours and open-water containment applications.
What provides buoyancy?
The boom uses closed-cell polyethylene foam within a cylindrical float section.
Which connector types are available?
Darcy lists EMCON and ASTM connector options.
Can I choose the material and size?
Darcy lists PVC, PU and PUA fabric options and asks customers to enquire about available sizes.
