JFC MARINE SHORTLISTED FOR MARINE INDUSTRY AWARD
JFC Marine has been shortlisted in the ‘Excellence in Marine Technology’ category for the Marine Industry Awards 2016. The Marine industry awards recognise and celebrate the most innovative companies in the Irish maritime sector.
The Marine Industry Awards 2016, in association with SeaFest, provide a voice for the individuals and companies that play a significant role in the growth and development of the industry in Ireland while recognising the key functions within the industry that promote growth and sustainability.
JFC has been shortlisted in the ‘Excellence in Marine Technology’ category for their new range of floating aids to navigation. This range covers from Ø2.6m – Ø3.0m buoys and branded the ‘Seagull’ after the first purpose built Irish light vessel in 1824. Designed for use for both inshore and offshore applications these modular designed buoys aim to set a new standard in floating aids to navigation. JFC Marine have considered all aspects of the buoys life at sea which are designed and manufactured for the most demanding conditions using superior quality materials and considering ease of assembly both onshore or on deck of support vessels. They also boast excellent stability characteristics, power system versatility, and environmental credentials. By addressing key design criteria, JFC buoys can reduce costs and maximise service intervals. Safe access for maintenance personnel and ease of operation has been prioritised, as have all deployment, mooring, and retrieval requirements.
JFC have collaborated with internationally recognised Carmanah Sabik as trade partners, who are worldwide experts in supplying self-contained solar powered LED marine Lanterns for use with the Navigation Buoy range.
With our new buoy design and with the advances in technology we are now capable of adding new technologies and sensors to our buoys to provide real- time information to pilots at sea, information such as wave height, wind speed and water currents. This gives the pilots more control on the shipping vessel and will contribute to the safe transport of imports and export.
