Restoring marine life

What is a Reef Ball?

A Reef Ball is an artificial reef structure designed to mimic natural coral reefs and provide habitats for marine organisms. Our Reef Balls are made of a specially designed, pH-neutral concrete that is environmentally safe. Our Reef Balls come in various shapes and sizes but most are dome-shaped with holes or slots to allow water and marine life to pass through.

Reef Balls are often deployed in coastal areas, including near shorelines, lagoons, and offshore sites. They are used by conservation organizations, research institutions, and government agencies around the world as a tool for reef restoration and marine conservation efforts.

The construction of Reef Balls requires some training. Running a project is more that just filling a mold and pulling it apart. Reef Innovations provides training worldwide for contractors that are authorized to Build Reef Ball Modules. The Reef Modules are to become a part of a living reef, or shoreline, therefore quality control is a must. The quality of any product will fall within established specifications. Contact Larry Beggs for more information on the training and quality control.

From the early planning stage to module manufacturing to deployment and follow up surveys, Reef Innovations offers all the service you need in your project.
