Launch of a super pontoon

Van Schie has always been at the forefront of innovation, searching for new concepts and solutions. With the advent of new laws and regulations, the Mijdrecht-based company has now developed a unique pontoon that not only meets all future requirements, but also with a coupling system that is unique in the industry.

The pontoon that was recently launched big at InfraTech under the name VSP770 offers numerous advantages, including a fixed coupling system. This eliminates the need to transport the couplings separately. They stay in the pontoon, right where they are needed. In addition, they can be coupled and uncoupled while standing. So our men no longer have to bend over or kneel. A big advantage is also the pontoon’s high deck load, plus smarter sizing. And that, in turn, makes for more efficient transportation.

The VSP770 is the answer to all demands for customization. All configurations are possible: in combination with a heavy crane, as a floating tool, as a pontoon bridge, etc. etc. The pontoon was tested under extreme conditions and then certified. It can be used throughout Europe, in accordance with EU Directive 2016/1629. In addition, Van Schie can perform the necessary strength and stability calculations for clients, with the main goal of making an event or infra work safely.
