Leading-edge Buoyancy Foam Solutions for Offshore Projects

High-performance subsea buoyancy modules for oceanographic applications

All buoyancy modules and equipment manufactured by ALSEAMAR are sold under the BMTI brand name. ALSEAMAR has the largest and dedicated manufacturing plant capacity for subsea foam modules for underwater vehicles and has internalized each production step.

The lowest densities and reliable syntactic foam

By combining material technology and design experience, BMTI designs, formulates and manufactures high performance foams for a maximised vehicle uplift with long term duration.

BMTI foams offer a wide range of densities and mechanical properties. Our design & engineering team will advise on the best foam reference that will provide the best combination to each subsea vehicle, depending on its size, shape and maximum depth. We can provide both standard foam blocks or custom-shaped buoyancy modules.

High Quality at Every Step of Manufacturing

Incorporating BMTI materials into underwater vehicles manufacturing significantly reduces the density and weight of the buoyancy, whilst providing the highest strenght to weight ratio to meet the deep and ultra-deep-water environment demands of both strenght and weight.

Control of the entire process: R&D & manufacturing, with in-house formulation and manufacturing from A to Z

DNV is the reference third-party organization that qualifies all suppliers capable of manufacturing equipment for this type of deepwater machine.

This will enable ALSEAMAR to open up the demanding market for buoyancy systems for manned submarines, which requires syntactic foams of the highest technical level, and for which every manufacturer must be qualified by DNV.

Specialized and dedicated factory

A factory 100% dedicated to syntactic foam, offering an optimal ratio of technical capacity to lead time. This is achieved through strategic investments in both state-of-the-art machinery and skilled personnel, ensuring controlled and reasonable lead times.

ALSEAMAR stands out for its agility and responsiveness, offering the flexibility of a smaller structure while delivering the expertise and solutions of much larger companies. The company’s approach is centered on true collaboration, working closely with their clients to meet their specific needs and adapt quickly to any challenge.
