Aids To Navigation

In 2005, JFC established a new marine focus with the development of a range of mussel float that now delivers mussel farmers the world over many advantages. From experience and product knowledge gained in serving the Aquaculture market we expanded our marine focus to provide a portfolio of Marine Aids to Navigation product solutions.

We now offer a complete range of polyethylene navigation buoys / lanterns, monitoring and control systems to suit all marine applications.
These products are successfully being used to mark out shipping channels, port entrances, hazardous waters, wind farms, aquaculture sites and a variety of other marine installations. Our extensive portfolio includes Navigation Buoys, Navigation Solar Lanterns (Beacons), Marker Posts and topmarks.

An industrial member of IALA (Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities), JFC buoys and lanterns are manufactured in accordance with IALA guidelines. In addition we also supply a range of remote monitoring & control (GSM, AIS) and alarm systems used by mariners including coast guards and major port authorities worldwide.

JFC Marine is delighted to introduce our latest additions G1500, G1800 & G2200 Navigation Buoys to our range of marine aids to navigation solutions.

These buoys are rotationally moulded polyethylene buoys designed for use in moderate seas. The daymark design has a large visual impact tower vailable in both can or cone shapes with a high focal height* for increased buoy visibility. Available in all the IALA recommended colours and configurations.

The modular design has a unique central core steel arrangement from lifting eye to mooring eyes for superior strength and durability. The central core design includes two mooring eyes fitted with a unique replaceable bushing system, extending the operational life of the buoy. The use of a twin bridle mooring provides greater stability and mooring flexibility when used in locations with fast water currents. In addition it is fitted with two lifting eyes for ease of manoeuvrability during installation or servicing purposes.

The design also allows for the modular float sections and daymark to be easily replaced on station if necessary during service life.
