With various triathlons, swim events, floating vehicles, river races & festivals this summer, Pontoonworks have been very busy indeed, we have been involved in many of the summers major events, we have assisted our clients with optimising marketing space to providing pedestrian & vehicle access bridges.

Pontoonworks are very proud to have been a part of the biggest summer event of 2012, providing Triathlon Swim Platform (an area in which Pontoonworks specialise) and various access bridges to allow spectators to watch these fantastic events.Please see the link below for a 360 degree photo of one of our triathlon swim platform's we installed:http://olimpiadas.uol.com.br/infograficos/2012/08/07/triathlon3.htm   

Pontoonworks has recently installed 800m2 of pontoon to form a floating work platform. This pontoon will be used to assist our client with the assembly of a geomembrane roof, when the roof is finished it will be used to contain methane gas which will then be used to power one of the UKs largest factories.

Summer 2011 has been a busy one for the Pontoonworks team who installed numerous floating platforms and temporary bridges for both public and private events around the country. Among these were the entry and exit swim platforms for three of the UK’s largest and most prestigious triathlons held in London.

Engineering consultants and contractors in south Wales have recently discovered the benefits of Pontoonworks innovative ideas. Working in a water filled quarry the drilling platform we provided was easily reformatted into a jetty when the client’s needs changed. An excavator pontoon and skip pontoon have been since been added to their hire inventory for a complete solution to working on water.

Located on the Argyll coast of Scotland near the western end of the Crinan Canal much of the village’s activity focuses around the canal basin. Visitors can enjoy sailing or walking the network of trails, towpath and shoreline. In July 2011 Pontoonworks supplied 25m² of pontoon to Crinan Boatyard to extend their existing mooring pontoons.

We floated over 300 “A” list celebrities, the Bolshoi Ballet and the Royal Philharmonic for a private function in London. Not only were we proud of this achievement but the event was top gossip on Peter Stringfellows Blog.

“……he had a whole ballroom built over his private lake. Now get this, apparently it took a week to build and three days to come down. Cut glass chandeliers, silk and see-through lace curtains, stages, dance floor, lighting etc. As you would expect, the dinner itself was spectacular  . . . "

We are very proud to be part of the Poole Second Opening Bridge Project – currently under construction by Hochtief. Since August last year we have provided their engineers with access for personnel, plant and equipment.
