During the year 2023, Resinex supplied FP 500 elastic beacons in the city of Marsa Matruh, located on the Mediterranean Sea, in Almaza Bay.
The area, well-known for its beautiful beaches, is also famous for historical accounts that Queen Cleopatra used to bathe in these waters with Mark Anthony.
In partnership with Maritime Group, Resinex elastic beacons received positive evaluations from the Red Sea Port Authority and the Egyptian Authority for Marine Safety (EMAS), recognized as the most suitable for the navigation assistance near the city’s port.
Almaza Bay, namely “the pearl” in Arabic, has a seabed of only 5 meters. The main challenge was the optimisation of the anchoring of the beacons: on rough sea days, the low point of the waves could decrease the sea level furtherly, creating turbulence.
To deal with this issue, Resinex studied and created a robust float PEM 21X1940 with a net buoyancy of 4200 kg, ensuring stability even in particularly rough sea conditions in shallow waters.
