Fast vessels like military ships, Crew Transfer Vessels (CTVs), workboats, yachts, and superyachts are constantly seeking to optimize spaces and weights. Over time, anchors have evolved from mass anchors to Posidonia’s VHHP anchors.
This engineering work, testing, and certifications have led Posidonia’s VHHP anchors to be exported worldwide—a Made in Italy product with certified and qualified craftsmanship from the National Welding Institute (“Istituto Italiano della saldatura”).
Fast vessels such as military ships, CTVs, workboats, yachts, and superyachts are always looking to optimize space and weight, which is why anchors have evolved over time from mass anchors to Posidonia’s VHHP anchors.
VHHP anchors are anchors with a high holding capacity in all marine conditions because they have been designed to provide reliability and safety to vessels, even in challenging conditions such as strong winds or rough seas.
PTW+ VHHP anchors: more safety, less weight
Posidonia’s PTW+ VHHP anchors are the only ones approved by the China Classification Society (CCS), a significant Chinese certification body confirming the quality and reliability of this product. The CCS certification adds to the numerous other international certifications already obtained, such as ABS, BV, DNV, LR, RINA, RS, KR.
PTW+ anchors can be equipped with a plate on the base approved by the IACS, allowing discreet anchoring to ensure maximum comfort during navigation. The plates can be made of different materials than the anchor and feature various finishes.
Posiadonia’s VHHP anchors
An engineering work, testing, and certifications have led Posidonia’s anchors to be exported worldwide today: made in Italy with certified and qualified craftsmanship by the National Welding Institute.
We are a family-owned company that has been working in the mooring and towing industry for over 100 years. We are a dynamic company continually expanding, operating worldwide, and among the top companies globally in anchor production. We specialize in customization for large vessels or high-performance boats. We work for super mega yachts, naval vessels, and Military Navies.
All our VHHP anchors are available in various finishes such as:
- hot-dip galvanized,
- painting
- polishing 400
- super yacht execution
- mirror polished Duplex Stainless Steel,
- electropolished,
- passivated.
All our anchors are also available with low magnetic permeability for special vessels such as MCMVs, which are minesweepers, minehunters, or drones. These processes and treatments help ensure durability, aesthetic appearance, and special properties that make Posidonia’s VHHP anchors unique.
Our engineering teams are ready to assist you in anchor selection, customization, 3D visualization, and obtaining necessary certifications.
