OpenG® profile: Flexible jetty system with a strong profile
Thanks to the „modular system“ OpenG® profile developed and patented by Kiebitzberg®, even demanding and large jetty systems such as the one in Langenargen can be implemented quickly and cost-effectively. Another major advantage of the floating jetties built in this way is that the system allows the jetty to be extended flexibly, easily and cost-effectively. Aluminium is used, which is characterized by its low weight - with simultaneous stability - and high resistance to corrosion.
