2025 Marine Salvage Airbags New Upgrade

When a ship sinks or runs aground, time, money, and safety matter. Marine salvage airbags give teams a fast, flexible way to lift and refloat vessels. These big, strong rubber tubes inflate under a hull and push the ship up using buoyancy — the same force that keeps boats afloat.

How Marine Salvage Airbags Work

Salvage airbags work by displacing water when filled with air. Salvors place them under or beside a shipwreck, inflate them in stages, and carefully lift the hull. This gentle, controlled process avoids using heavy cranes in many cases, saving both time and cost.

A quality marine airbag includes an outer rubber layer, several fabric layers for strength, and an airtight inner layer. This design keeps it strong and flexible even under pressure or when it rubs against debris.

NANHAI’s Big Upgrade in 2025

In 2025, NANHAI made a major improvement to its marine salvage airbags. The company upgraded the rubber formula, increasing abrasion resistance by 100%.

This means the new marine salvage airbags can handle twice as much wear and scraping as before. When working near rocks, reefs, or rusty metal, that’s a huge advantage. Fewer damages mean fewer replacements and less downtime. Crews can focus on the job instead of repairs.


Why This Matters for Salvage Teams

Stronger, longer-lasting airbags make every project safer and smoother.
With NANHAI’s new material, you’ll get:

  • More durability — The bags resist scratches and cuts during rough work.
  • Better safety — Stronger skins mean less risk of air leaks during lifting.
  • Lower costs — You spend less money on repairs and replacements.
  • Faster results — Crews finish work sooner without unexpected delays.

For shipowners and salvage companies, these benefits mean fewer surprises and more profits.
