Master Plank, an ^ engineered wood product, is a continuous laminated veneer panel that can be cut into any required size for use as scaffold planks, beams and headers, etc. Available in standard widths. Master Plank, a wood laminate, provides strength properties superior to solid sawn wood. Warping, knotting and twisting are reduced, making the panel more consistently uniform.

The U.S. Navy chose Seaward dock fenders to protect Pier Zulu, in Charleston, S.C.This new 20 million dollar pier is the prototype of the

Navy's pier designs for the 1990's. Seaward's fenders have also been installed on new

Navy berthing facilities in California,

Florida, Virginia, Iceland, and the Philip- pines. These fenders are being included in the design of new home port facilities and are being used in the upgrading of Navy docks around the world.

Seaward dock fenders are constructed of a tough, snag-free elastomer coating. And

Seaward's closed-cell foam center has a very high energy absorption capacity but a low reaction force.These fenders provide stand-off and safely cushion the impact of approaching vessels, whether they're tugboats or battleships. Yet Seaward dock fenders are as easy to install as they are rugged.

The U.S. Navy didn't settle for an ordinary fender to protect Pier Zulu. So why should you?
