Product Description
Navigation buoys installed in coastal and waterway environments need to maintain reliable marking performance while facing continuous exposure to waves, weather and accidental contact.
The DX-PE1200 combines a durable polyethylene float body with UHMWPE protection components in exposed areas to create a practical balance between buoyancy reliability, impact resistance and maintenance efficiency.
Designed for long-term AtoN operation, the buoy provides stable flotation, protected lantern installation and flexible configuration options for different marine projects.
1200 mm Float Diameter · PE Float Body · UHMWPE Impact Areas · PU Foam Filling · Protected Lantern Structure
The buoy body is manufactured using rotomolded polyethylene, providing a seamless float structure with strong corrosion resistance and low maintenance requirements compared with traditional metal float bodies.
The material design helps maintain reliable performance during long-term outdoor exposure.
The upper lantern support tube and lower structural tube are made from UHMWPE to improve resistance against impact, ageing and long-term marine exposure.
This material selection helps improve resistance against impact, abrasion and ageing, while reducing maintenance needs for exposed upper sections.
The float uses closed-cell PU foam filling to support dependable buoyancy.
The foam-filled structure helps maintain flotation performance and provides additional protection against water ingress if external damage occurs.
Marine maintenance often requires simple and practical solutions.
The DX-PE1200 adopts a modular component design, allowing key components such as tube sections, protection cage, topmark, and ballast-related parts to be inspected and replaced separately, making routine maintenance more practical in field conditions.
The buoy can be configured according to project requirements, including filling options, ballast arrangement, colour and navigation equipment selection.
This allows the same platform to support different AtoN applications while maintaining consistent installation and operation standards.
- Channel marking
- Coastal navigation marking
- Harbour entrances
- Waterway AtoN systems
- Floating navigation marks in exposed marine areas
Configured for the Required IALA Mark
The topmark helps identify the buoy’s function during daylight.
Dexonmarine can configure the buoy with the appropriate IALA topmark, colour, and light characteristics for lateral, cardinal, special, isolated danger, safe water, or emergency wreck marking, according to Region A or Region B and local authority requirements.

- Enhanced Protection Where It Matters
UHMWPE components are applied in exposed areas to improve impact resistance and durability.
- Reliable Buoyancy System
The PE float body and closed-cell foam filling provide stable buoyancy performance for marine operation.
- Practical Field Service
Modular components support easier inspection and replacement during maintenance.
- Flexible Project Configuration
Colours, ballast arrangement and marking equipment can be adapted according to project requirements.
UHMWPE is used in the upper and lower tubes because these sections are exposed to higher impact risks. It provides high impact resistance and long-term durability.
Key components such as the UHMWPE tube sections, protection cage, topmark and ballast-related parts can be inspected, repaired or replaced separately, making routine field maintenance more practical.
Yes. The buoy can be configured with different filling options, colours, ballast arrangements and navigation equipment according to project requirements.
