Port of Brisbane – Custom Hoses for Dredging Operations

In 2021, the Port of Brisbane engaged us to design and build dredge hoses for their dredging program.

The dredging operations manager had trialled different hoses in the past, but they kept failing.

We helped them design new sink, bow, and taper hoses for their operations. Our Brisbane manufacturing team built the new dredge hoses, ranging in size from 3.5m-12m. The hoses also had a built-in, high-density foam layer to provide buoyancy without the need for floats.

The hoses are now in service as part of a state-wide dredging program, operating in Queensland’s main ports.
