Commercial Hovercraft

Commercial hovercraft, rescue hovercraft, whatever your application, our commercial hovercraft suit companies that need to reach places that are out of bounds to conventional craft & therefore allow access to areas that no other vehicles can reach.

Hov Pod hovercraft are ideal for rescue, survey, environmental and research projects, mud sampling, military applications, bridge maintenance and repair, industrial work & they are ideal for patrolling shallow water areas, tidal mud, sand, ice, grass etc.

Hov Pod Hovercraft are suited to commercial applications - whereas most small hovercraft are manufactured from glass fibre which shatters on impact, Hov Pods are manufactured from HDPE - this material is impact resistant, very buoyant yet lightweight. Commercial craft need to be impact resistance and a recent case proves the Hov Pod Strength where in use the craft hit a large piece of concrete and just bounced off it, a glass fibre craft would have simply shattered. Our skirt fabric is unique and is almost impossible to rip.

The Hov Pod skirt material is a unique specially developed weave & fabric combination with anti-rip properties & incredible wear resistance. It means you can operate in greater safety & will not be forever changing or repairing skirts. Individual skirt sections & the unique IAPSS skirt design gives far greater flexibility, continued operational ability & high speed safety.

When speed of access is important, hovercraft are true all-terrain vehicles, and can travel from land to sea & back to land without delay, simply by a flick of the wrist. With no propeller to snag on under-water obstructions, hovercraft can safely operate in areas out of bounds to conventional marine craft.

They can even navigate fast flowing rivers, so in all sorts of terrain, and any time of the tidal day, they can deliver personnel precisely to where they need to reach, and fast.

Our products have been put to good use by customers requiring a safe and simple to use hovercraft. We offer a range of options to suit all types of use and Hov Pods have been used as:

Airport bird scaring/support/rescue services.
Famine relief aid support craft.
Safety craft for low tide coastal work where 24-hour access is vital for staff safety.
Bridge construction and repair/maintenance.
Coastal civil engineering.
Environmental projects.
Fish farm access.
Mud Sampling
Oil exploration.
Geological and port surveys.
Mud & riverbed sampling

The latest updated specification sheet shows the use of hovercraft for commercial use. Small hovercraft are extremely useful for reaching areas such as tidal mud flats and sandbanks during low tide. As used by marine survey companies, bridge repair and maintenance specialists, fish farms, environment agencies, coast guard, etc. Download the spec sheet from http://www.commercialhovercraft.com/

If you need to hire a hovercraft to conduct marine surveys, undertake bridge repair or construction, take mud samples, carry out environmental surveys, chances are that we have a hovercraft operator near you. Hovercraft can travel over any flat surface and can reach areas that other boats or all terrain vehicles cannot reach.

Oil Exploration in shallow water areas.

Hovercraft manufacturer, Reaction International Ltd reports an upsurge in interest from oil companies exploring for oil and gas reserves in shallow water areas. Their hovercraft seats three adults and can traverse over any flat terrain, so is really useful reaching exploration sites in areas inaccessible to conventional vehicles. With no propeller to get damaged, hovercraft have no problem in shallow water areas, and ofcourse are happy to fly over mud, sand, ice, snow, indeed any flat surface at speeds up to 40 mph.

Commercial Hovercraft Advantages

Hovercraft are very useful for getting to coastal areas, to conduct surveys or act as safety boats. Civil engineers need to take mud samples to determine what type of foundations are required. Rivers with fast running or very shallow water can be difficult for boats to handle.

Commercial hovercraft applications

noreply@blogger.com (Hovercraft) — Fri, 20 Feb 2009 08:57:12 PST

We recently supplied a Hovercraft to a company involved in bridge maintenance and repair.

Particularly at low tide, safety is of paramount importance, and ofcourse boats are pretty useless in very shallow water, even more-so, tidal mud.

Hovercraft are also very useful for obtaining mud samples to establish how deep foundations should be for bridge and coastal construction, or to assess pollution levels for environmental research.

Hovercraft are used in shallow water areas for oil exploration, and can also be modified to scan large areas to search for wrecks.
