Frequently Asked Questions
Are precast anchor blocks suitable for offshore use?
Yes. Our blocks are designed for aggressive marine exposure and can be manufactured to suit offshore loading requirements.
How is the correct block weight determined?
Weight is determined by environmental loading, water depth, mooring design and seabed conditions. We can help based on your project data.
Can blocks be used for fish farm cage anchoring?
Yes. They are commonly used to secure aquaculture cages, net pens and associated floating systems.
Do you provide lifting points?
Yes. Cast-in lifting anchors or eyes can be incorporated for safe handling and installation.
Can anchor blocks be recovered?
Yes. Where specified for temporary use, blocks can be recovered subject to inspection.
Are bespoke sizes available?
Yes. We manufacture to suit specific weight, footprint or connection requirements.
