CLS Southern Africa, based in Cape Town, is specialized in the field of marine instrumentation, oceanography, coastal engineering, in support of the offshore sectors and science. CLS has chosen Resinex to develop a new modular float for its Lidar buoy.

Resinex has therefore studied, developed and produced a float with particular dimensional and stability performances, a modular buoy with two modules. It has a diameter of 3.4 meters and a buoyancy of 5640 kg.

Resinex technical department projected some particular passages which go through the float that was specifically designed to optimize the assembly of the metal part.

The CLS LIDAR buoys are oceanographic buoys equipped with LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors to collect environmental data, in particular information on wind, waves and currents. They are particularly used in the offshore wind industry, oceanographic research and environmental monitoring.
