Plastic floats filled with EPS foam
25 May 2019
Dock floats are used to support floating docks, and keep them afloat. These foam-filled floats are built to keep the dock afloat even if the outside shell is punctured.
Such a float as part of a floating structure can safely tolerate freezing in ice in the winter.

Floats foam-filled float offer durable flotation for a variety of new or existing dock systems. The plastic exterior one-piece seamless shell design prevents leakage and separation caused by weak joints. The float wall is made of tough virgin polyethylene with ultra violet inhibitors to prevent damage from the sun, debris, oil, gas, marine organisms, salt, and fresh water. A nominal wall thickness of 6-8 mm offers a stronger, more durable float. The top of the shell is flat with molded-in mounting slots for easy attachment to any dock frame.
The interior of the float is filled with expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam. The foam is steam pressured for a tight fit that provides the highest buoyancy possible. The falling test and ultrasonic wall thickness testing are part of Manufacturer ROTOMO quality procedures to ensure the durable, long life of our floats.
