About

Bencros is Europe’s largest rubber fender manufacturer

Our products are used by ports and harbours, tug builders and shipyards in many countries. We also make specialist products for offshore, industrial, infrastructure and agricultural use. Our factory sits at the centre of the European Union, with excellent road and rail connections across the continent which translates into quicker delivery and lower shipping costs. We regularly export to North and South America, the Middle East, Africa and Australasia from Europe’s major container terminals.

Energy Calculation

 Our energy calculation spreadsheet helps users to estimate the kinetic energy of berthing ships in most common scenarios using BS6349 and PIANC methods. The underlying ship tables are adopted from PIANC WG121 and can be interpolated by length, beam, laden draft and other parameters. Users can choose open, semi-open or closed structures, also select the preferred method for Added Mass coefficient.
