The Narval breakwater is unique, high-performance, conceived to prevent shore erosion and protect coastal infrastructures such as harbors, marinas, roads etc. The Narval breakwater disperses the waves' energy by altering its typical orbital motion. This innovative design is the result of a decade of research and development. Patented internationally and tested scientifically in wave basins at Laval University, in Québec City, Canada and at sea, this floating breakwater is most efficient. It actually stands out due to its low cost and easy installation in addition to its mild impact on environment.
