TPA’s NATO Modular Steel Pontoons can be connected to each other on the short or long sides. Firstly, the pontoons must be lowered into the water by means of a lifting device. This can be done by four suitable hoisting slings or chains which can be fixed at the four available lifting lugs.

On the water the pontoons are pushed together and then coupled by connecting the elements (connection forks and connection rings). Using this method of assembly, only 2-3 people are required and floating work platforms with different dimensions can be built very easily. It’s also possible to equip your floating work platform with various accessories, including railing, motor support, and mooring winches.
