Evergreen-Maritime Marine Fenders SystemTM marine fenders are made using the high quality Natural Rubber or Synthetic rubber or a mixture of them. All the rubber properties meet or exceed the performance requirements of international fender recommendations, such as PIANC. These are reinforced with carbon black and resistant to aging, seawater, abrasion, and ultraviolet rays.

The tables below list usual physical properties for the fenders. All test results are from laboratory made and cured test pieces.
