At SME, our goal is not to be the biggest, but to be the best. This commitment is reflected in our innovative designs and superior quality marine fenders, which offer low cost of ownership and outstanding performance.

Cylindrical fenders, although considered relatively simple and basic among the various types of fenders, do not let their straightforward design obscure the complexity of their formulation technology.

Many manufacturers’ cylindrical fenders, after prolonged natural exposure or frequent impacts from ships, can experience flattening and deformation, making it difficult for them to return to their original shape. This precisely underscores the crucial role that formulation technology plays in determining the performance of marine rubber fenders.
