Our experienced team supports shipowners in selecting the right Polar package, tailored to vessel capacity, polar‑service temperature, and mean daily low temperature (MDLT) – ensuring full compliance and operational safety in extreme conditions.

Deck Equipment

Through advanced engineering, tailored solutions, and specialized services, PALFINGER MARINE is the trusted expert for deck equipment in the cruise sector.

Our cranes serve as versatile and reliable tools for repair work on large components and for efficient provisioning and cargo handling.

On cruise vessels, they also act as dependable tendering systems for boats and jet skis.

In addition, PALFINGER MARINE offers a comprehensive portfolio of anchor and mooring winches designed for cruise ships, ferries, and yachts – delivering robust performance and long‑term reliability at sea.

Fenders

We are continuously developing our fender solutions to meet the demands of tomorrow. With innovative options such as uniquely colored fenders, protective jackets, and custom lifting arrangements, PALFINGER MARINE remains your trusted supplier of high‑quality, innovative fenders.

For cruise vessels and ports, we deliver both pneumatic (rubber) and foam‑filled fenders, each customizable to match specific customer requirements.

Slipway Systems

PALFINGER MARINE slipway systems offer an easy and safe solution for launching and recovering daughter crafts.

Designed for gentle load distribution across the boat hull, they ensure a smooth, controlled transition in and out of the slipway.

The system eliminates the need for lifting, hooking, mechanical connections, painter lines, or arrester wires – delivering efficient operations at sea.
