A holistic approach to marine and shoreline construction

How Reefy can help you:

Assessments and Quantification

  • Pre-project assessments and monitoring
  • Best practice recommendations
  • Quantifying impact results post project

Adding Value with Nature

  • Triple biodiversity at project site.
  • Reduce environmental mitigation costs.
  • Increase tender bid potential

Smart Engineering Solutions

  • Save up to 60% in material volumes
  • Reduce spatial and environmental footprints by up to 50%

One of our star engineering solutions:

The Reef Enhancing Breakwater

At Reefy we are proud to introduce the first modular artificial reef that is stable enough to dissipate wave energy to protect the coast whilst providing the required substrate and habitat complexity to boost marine biodiversity. This patented innovation in coastal infrastructure is the REB: Reef Enhancing Breakwater.
The Reef Enhancing Breakwater is available now for your project. Contact us now to learn more about how the REB can transform your coastal initiatives and contribute to a healthier marine ecosystem.

Boskalis chose to work with Reefy in the Rotterdam Reef project as we see value in it's double function as environmental breakwater that can both withstand waves and provides habitat for marine life.

The Reefy living Breakwater has been tested in our experimental facilities, showing stability and wave attenuation under hurricane conditions. We see their potential in the field and are looking forward to future collaboration.

Who we are

Founders

Jaime Ascencio

Coastal Engineer

Using nature as an inspiration, we strive towards changing the environmental impact of coastal infrastructure from a negative to a positive.

Leon Haines

Marine biologist

By restoring natural reef barriers we can keep communities safe in the face of sea level rise whilst maintaining the ecosystem services they rely on.

BlueBiodex

Dashboard

            Quantify Impact. Unlock Insight. Protect Aquatic Ecosystems.

BlueBlodex brings together satellite imagery, eDNA, water quality, and other environmental data to give you clear insights into the health of aquatic ecosystems – before, during, or after a project. Using a growing set of scientific methods to turn complex data into practical guidance.

Created for teams working where infrastructure meets nature, BlueBiodex helps you measure the impact of man-made developments and demonstrate the benefits of nature-enhancing solutions in aquatic environments.

Backed by Reefy’s technical expertise, it helps you make sense of the data, understand ecosystem change, and plan projects that deliver real ecological value.

What it does:

Ecosystem Health Monitoring

  • Tracks ecosystem health using
    indicators like water quality and
    eDNA, and combines them into an
    index to measure project impact

Insightful Contextualization

  • Puts findings into context to explain
    why ecosystems are changing.

Ecological Baseline Definition

  • Establishes ecological baselines to
    guide project planning.

Impact Measurement & Monitoring

  • Helps you measure, monitor and visualize impact— from the first idea to the
    final report.

Environmental Planning Support

  • Supports planning, permitting, and
    environmental reporting

Resource Optimization Guidance

  • Helps you save resources and
    maximize impact with advice on
    where and how to build better.
