Permanent Fence Boom

Containment for oil debris, floating pollutants, trash,

and other floating junk from sensitive facilities or areas.

Fence boom does what all other containment boom does it just does more of it, with bigger and stronger materials and design. The fence boom is often used as a permanent barrier made with super tough materials for long term service. Unlike traditional containment boom which has the flotation as the top part of the assembly, fence boom with surface mounted floats can stand several inches above the water surface as a vertical barrier. It’s extremely rugged construction and excellent resistance to weathering provide years of reliable, low-cost performance.

SkimOil’s Fence Boom is perfect for oil debris containment and for exclusion of floating pollutants, trash, debris and other floating junk from sensitive facilities or areas.
