    Custom Marine Solutions for Specialty Waterfront Applications

    With the growing use of Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) composites for standard waterfront structures like piles, sheet piling, and camels, owners and engineers are discovering innovative applications where FRP’s corrosion resistance and durability shine. FRP’s design flexibility enables custom solutions that meet specific performance requirements for complex projects, making it an increasingly attractive option in the marine sector.

    At CCG, we leverage our expertise to design, construct, and rigorously test custom applications tailored to unique waterfront needs. By highlighting these specialty solutions, CCG demonstrates its capability to deliver reliable, high-performance products that cater to a variety of waterfront projects.

    Advantages of Using FRP for Marine Specialty Applications:
    • High Strength and Lightweight Properties — Our FRP composite structures offer an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, combining the robustness needed for marine environments with natural buoyancy—a critical feature for floating and submerged applications
    • Exceptional Durability — Our composites are embedded in a polymer matrix that resists chemicals, saltwater corrosion and UV radiation, protecting FRP structures from the harsh conditions typically encountered along waterfronts
    • Low Maintenance, Long Service Life — FRP structures have an extended lifespan of up to 75 years with minimal maintenance. This durability results in significant cost savings over the lifetime of the installation
    • Cost-Effective Solution — FRP composites provide high structural strength at a competitive cost, making them a budget-friendly yet high-performance choice for demanding marine applications

    CCG Specialty FRP Applications

    We offer a range of FRP solutions specifically designed for waterfront and marine environments:

    frp crush block
    • Wicket Gates — Custom-designed to withstand continuous water pressure, these gates are resilient, lightweight and easy to handle
    • Trench Covers — Our FRP trench covers provide safe, corrosion-resistant solutions for exposed waterfront trenches, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring reliable long-term performance
    • Stop Logs & Bulkheads — Designed to control water flow, these FRP stop logs and bulkheads are lightweight and easy to maneuver, yet exceptionally durable for waterfront applications
    • Lock & Sector Gates — FRP lock and sector gates offer a corrosion-resistant, impact-absorbing alternative to traditional materials, helping protect lock infrastructure
    • Crush Blocks — Used as protective barriers, our FRP crush blocks absorb impact, protecting lock walls, docks and vessels from damage during berthing and docking.
    • Pumpout Floats — Buoyant and resilient, these floats provide reliable support for pump-out stations, enhancing their longevity in saltwater environments

    Through these custom applications, CCG showcases its commitment to delivering sustainable, cost-effective and high-performance FRP solutions tailored to the specific demands of waterfront and marine projects.
