Explore Unifloat® concrete docks: modular, durable, cost-effective floating dock solution engineered by Bellingham Marine.
What is Unifloat®?
Unifloat® is Bellingham Marine’s concrete floating dock system. Each float is a single-pour concrete module, solid on all six sides around a closed-cell foam core. Structural walers and thru-rods join the modules into one continuous dock, so sections can be replaced or reconfigured later. It is one of the most economical commercial dock systems available.
