Arya Plast Machine Group is the first and only manufacturer of polyethylene products for the marine and fisheries industries in Iran. The company has pioneered the design, localization, and mass production of various horizontal and vertical marker buoys for the first time in the country, with all its designs registered as industrial models. Arya Plast is also the only certified reference in Iran’s marine and fisheries sector holding an ISIC code from the Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade. Equipped with in-house design, mold-making, and production teams, the company has successfully achieved mass production and export of its products
Marker buoys are floating devices used in waterways to indicate routes, mark hazardous areas, or designate specific zones. These buoys are commonly deployed in seas, lakes, rivers, and water channels, serving a variety of navigational and safety purposes
Route marking: Marker buoys can be used to define marine routes for boats and ships, assisting in safe and accurate navigation
Hazard warning: Marker buoys are used to indicate underwater hazards such as rocks, reefs, shallow areas, or coral zones, helping to prevent accidents and ensure maritime safety
Restricted area marking: These buoys can be used to identify areas with restricted access, such as military zones or environmentally protected regions, ensuring that vessels remain within designated safe boundaries
Guidance in water sports: In activities such as boating, swimming, or surfing, buoys can serve as reference points to help organize courses and ensure safety during events
Support for rescue operations: In emergencies, buoys can serve as reference points for rescue teams, helping to coordinate and facilitate timely response efforts
The use of marker buoys is highly effective in enhancing safety and improving navigation efficiency in waterways.
Buoys are classified into horizontal and vertical types, each with its own specific features and applications
-Vertical Buoys:
Features:
Shape and Structure: These buoys are typically designed in cylindrical or conical shapes and are positioned vertically in the water
Height: Vertical buoys typically have greater height, allowing them to protrude above the water surface and be easily visible
Installation: These buoys are typically anchored with weights fixed underwater, ensuring they remain stable against waves and water currents
Applications
Application: Route Marking Route Marking: Used to mark marine routes and highlight hazard points for safe navigation.
Swimmer Warning: Commonly used along beaches to alert swimmers and boaters about potential hazards in the water
-Horizontal Buoys
Features:
Shape and Structure: Horizontal buoys are typically circular or oval in shape and float horizontally on the water surface.
Wide Coverage: These buoys typically span a larger surface area, allowing them to be easily seen in various weather conditions
Installation: These buoys can be secured on the water surface using weights or specialized anchoring systems
Applications
Special Area Marking: Used to indicate restricted or protected areas, ensuring vessels and swimmers remain within safe and authorized zones
Marking and Corridors in Water Sports: Serve as reference points in activities such as boating, swimming, and surfing, helping to define lanes and organize courses
Differences:
Vertical buoys are primarily used for route marking and hazard indication Horizontal buoys, on the other hand, are primarily used for marking specific areas and organizing water sports activities
Visibility: Vertical buoys are generally more visible from a distance than horizontal buoys, especially in deep water
The type of buoy is selected based on specific needs and environmental conditions
The marker buoys designed and manufactured by Arya Plast Machine Group, all of which are certified industrial designs, are as follows
-26-Liter Buoys (Yukahama)
-50-Liter Spherical Buoys
-80-Liter Horizontal Marker Buoys
-90-Liter Vertical Buoys
-200-Liter Short Range Buoys
It is noteworthy that the use of buoys varies depending on the specific needs of the region and the project Customers can consult with the company’s marine industry specialists for free before placing an order or making a purchase
