This tender is for the supply and delivery of cylindrical and supercone marine fenders for the Port of Cape Town. Key requirements include compliance with specified dimensions and performance data, along with necessary testing and certification.
The Port of Cape Town seeks suppliers for cylindrical and supercone marine fenders to enhance its berthing infrastructure. The successful bidder will manufacture and deliver rubber marine fenders, ensuring they meet stringent specifications such as dimensions (1600mm OD x 800mm ID x 2000mm L for cylindrical fenders) and performance metrics (energy absorption of 576kNm). Additionally, the fenders must be tested and certified by an independent third party prior to delivery.
The scope of work includes the provision of steel attachments, which must be made from S355J2 graded steel and hot-dip galvanized to ensure durability. Suppliers are required to provide comprehensive maintenance manuals and schedules for each component supplied. The contract duration is once-off, and all goods must be delivered to the Pollution Depot at the Port of Cape Town, adhering to the agreed timelines. This project not only aims to improve safety and efficiency in vessel berthing but also supports local manufacturing and job creation initiatives.
This tender is suitable for manufacturers and suppliers specializing in marine fender systems, rubber products, and steel fabrication. Companies with experience in compliance testing and certification for marine applications are encouraged to apply.
