Airbag type：Ship Launching Airbag

Size: Dia2.5m L15m 7 Layers

Country: Brazil

Year:2026

Recently, a shipyard in Brazil successfully completed a vessel launching project using Florescence marine launching airbags, demonstrating a safe, efficient, and cost-effective ship launching method for medium and large vessels.

First-Time Use of Florescence Marine Launching Airbags with Professional Technical Support

This was the customer’s first time using marine launching airbags, and the project was successfully completed with strong technical cooperation between both sides.

Based on the shipyard’s ramp conditions, vessel dimensions, and operational requirements, Florescence engineering team held a video conference with the client’s technical department to design a complete and safe ship launching solution.

The customer finally used 13 units of 2.5m × 15m, 7-layer marine launching airbags, and successfully launched 13 barges smoothly and safely.

This case shows that Florescence is not only a manufacturer of ship launching airbags, but also a provider of complete ship launching solutions and technical 

Even for first-time users of marine airbags, there is no need to worry. Our professional engineering team provides full technical support, including:

· On-site operation guidance (remote/video support)

· Customized ship launching plan according to shipyard conditions

· Safety and pressure distribution analysis

· Step-by-step launching procedure support

This successful case in Brazil further proves that marine rubber airbags for ship launching are becoming the preferred solution for modern shipyards in South America.

FAQ 

Q1: What are marine airbags mainly used for?

A: Marine airbags are widely used for ship launching, ship landing, heavy cargo moving, salvage operations, and marine construction projects.

Q2: What materials are used in your marine airbags?

Q3: What is the size range of ship launching airbags? 

A: The standard diameter ranges from 0.6m to 2.8m, and the effective length can be customized from 5m to 28m or even longer,3-12layers according to project needs

Q4: Can airbags be customized?

A: Yes. Diameter, length, pressure rating, reinforcement layers, and end structure design can all be customized.

Q5: How should marine airbags be stored?

A: Airbags should be stored in a dry, ventilated environment away from sunlight, oils, acids, and sharp objects.

Q6: How is airbag bearing capacity calculated?

A: Bearing capacity depends on airbag diameter, working pressure, contact area, vessel weight, and airbag quantity.
