FloodFence™: swift and secure flood protection for rapid response requirements
In the face of escalating concerns over flash floods, the demand for swift and effective flood mitigation solutions has never been more critical. In response to this urgent need, FloodFence™ emerges as a cutting-edge, modular system designed for immediate deployment and rapid response.
Unlike conventional methods that require time-consuming bolting, FloodFence™ revolutionises flood protection with its efficient assembly, empowering a single individual to deploy the system within minutes.
How does the Emtez FloodFence™ flood barrier work?
Central to FloodFence™'s effectiveness is its utilisation of hydrostatic pressure from the water, a unique mechanism that ensures the system remains securely in place during flood events. This ingenious approach not only enhances the reliability of FloodFence™ but also minimises the complexity of installation, making it the perfect solution for immediate flood response.
Ideal terrain: Flat and hard surfaces. Not recommended for use on gravel. Seepage expected.
Lightweight vs Heavyweight
FloodFence™ boasts two distinct versions tailored to address varying flood intensities – Lightweight and Heavyweight. While the Lightweight version excels in standard flood scenarios, FloodFence™ Heavy takes the innovation a step further, offering the same efficiency with an enhanced capacity suitable for larger floods and tidal applications.
Optimal storage capabilities
Both versions of FloodFence™ are designed for minimal storage requirements, thanks to their nesting capability. The units can be neatly stacked, enabling the fitting of multiple units onto a single pallet. This feature not only enhances the overall logistics of FloodFence™ but also ensures that the system is easily stored when not in use.
