Big Bumper Company
Inflatable Boat Fenders
Big Bumper Company has reinvented the boat fender. Their inflatable, marine-grade PVC fenders offer superior protection in a fraction of the storage space of traditional foam fenders — without sacrificing any of the performance.

What Makes Big Bumper Company Fenders Different
A Different Approach to Fender Design
Most boat fenders — from Polyform, Taylor Made, Mission Sentry, and other well-regarded brands — are solid cylindrical or spherical fenders made from durable PVC or polyethylene. They're proven, reliable, and widely used across every category of vessel. FenderSox™ makes precision covers for all of them.
Big Bumper Company takes a different approach entirely: fully inflatable fenders that deflate flat for storage. For boaters who want the option to store their fenders in minimal space — aboard, in a dock box, or on a transient trip — that's a meaningful difference.
The Big Bumper Advantage
Big Bumper Company fenders are fully inflatable — made from commercial-grade marine PVC with stainless steel D-rings rated for serious loads. Deflated, they store flat and take up 90% less space than their inflated equivalent. Inflated, they deliver full hull and dock protection.
The size range runs from compact 2ft models for smaller vessels all the way to 12ft fenders for superyachts and commercial applications. Every model is available with custom FenderSox™ neoprene covers.
