Seaweed Sargassum Boom

Seaweed Sargassum Boom

GEI Works’ Seaweed Containment Boom is designed to meet the more rigorous conditions of water containing large plumes of seaweed or other floating vegetation. Seaweed Boom is used to help control floating seaweed through containment, diversion, or deflection. Large algae blooms and floating seaweed islands such as Sargassum are often in water conditions that require tidal and current consideration.

Our Seaweed Containment Boom is built with robust components, dual tension cables, and a heavy-duty permeable skirt that allows for more water passthrough without sacrificing the barrier’s ability to withstand the significant weight of floating plants.
