Barnacle Guard

BARNACLE Guard's Pylon Protectors are an Australian invention, designed to prevent barnacles, oysters and other marine growth attaching to the pylons at marinas and on pontoons.

Marine growth not only looks and smells unpleasant at low tide, but there is also a risk of damage to moored vessels, by sharp shells, which can also be a safety concern for anyone nearby.

Barnacle Guard Pylon Protectors were developed to prevent costly, time consuming maintenance and to keep pontoons and marinas looking their best.

Barnacle Guards are easily fitted to new or existing pylons, and are powered by tidal movement, currents and passing boats. This drives them to gently sponge the pylon between low and high tide, effectively keeping it free of growth across the average tidal range.

Barnacle Guard is currently offering marinas a three month trial, for more info visit the website: www.barnacleguard.com.au, or call 1300 559 169.
