Post Flooding – Back to Normal in Just Hours
Compared to sandbags and big bags – the NoFloods Barriers have proven their efficiency and reliability over and over during several storm surges.
E.g. within the first 2 weeks of 2019, the barriers were deployed in multiple locations to protect people and critical infrastructure from potential devastation by flood waters.
One of the key advantages of the NoFloods Barrier is its ease of deployment and subsequent removal.
Compared to sandbags, only 0.5% of the resources are required for installation.
Once deployed and filled with water, the barrier becomes resistant to storms, with a protection height starting from 80 cm to 130 cm or more.
This feature ensures that the Barrier can withstand strong currents and high water pressure without collapsing.
With respect to the use of manpower and the crew’s health and safety – one question worth asking is whether you would prefer to move 30,000 heavy sandbags by hand when you can use machine power, simple techniques, and a few trained personnel to monitor the entire process?
The former option is bad news for people’s backs, but the latter is good news for volunteers and emergency agencies ?.
Here’s a video demonstrating how easy it is to remove the barrier using a hydraulic winch.

You can use any vehicle like a tractor, telescope loader or similar to help install and remove the barrier.
This reduces the risk of back injuries and eliminates the need for chiropractors to treat volunteers who may experience back pain from lifting heavy sandbags.
