ABOUT US

Proserve have over forty years experience with maritime design, construction systems and the development and use of fabric formwork systems. Their use is primarily for underwater construction, where they are filled with micro concrete (sand: cement mix), grout or concrete. The fabrics are purpose woven in high strength synthetic yarn and importantly are porous avoiding the risk of any entrapped water. The systems are light and easy to handle underwater and avoid the potential risk of washout.

Proserve have a wide range of products, services and applications which have been used on both large and small projects around the world:-

Maritime, Structural and Civil Design Construction System Development
Risk Management and Testing Fabric Formwork System Supply
