Bolina’s debris boom delivers a breaking strength of 55t while maintaining a unique flush sided design, enabling it to control debris across large areas of water to minimise operational and maintenance problems.

Chris Rogers, operations manager at Bolina, said: “We are excited to launch this new product to protect more critical infrastructure in a cost-effective manner. The development of this boom brings with it the opportunity to control greater amounts of debris on larger, faster flowing waterways than were previously considered possible with this type of boom. The new Bolina debris boom ensures critical infrastructure is protected from the immense power of water carried debris, to effectively control it and reduce damage.”

Lightweight but strong

Lighter and much smaller than the original series, the boom is more affordable to ship and transport. The reduction in size and weight does not compromise the strength and effectiveness of the boom as it is engineered from material that is strong and durable in the toughest environments.

It is also simple to install and can be constructed and installed onsite from a comprehensive kit of parts using simple and readily available hand tools. The production of all components of the boom is based in the UK.
