Water-Gate flood protection solutions
Water-Gate flood barriers offer an effective emergency solution to protect your property from flooding. Find out how this innovative technology works and how it can help you in the event of flooding.
How it works
1. Automatic deployment
- Water-Gate barriers are designed to deploy automatically under water pressure.
- Stored rolled up, they unroll quickly as soon as the water begins to rise.
2. Stabilization
- Once deployed, the barriers use hydraulic power to stabilize themselves.
- The pressure of the water against the barrier increases its stability and efficiency.
3. Flood blocking
- The gates create a robust seal thanks to their unique design.
- They prevent water from entering protected areas, providing a solid physical barrier against flooding.
Highlights
- Flexible, resistant materials: PVC-coated polyester fabric, capable of resisting water pressure, debris and abrasion.
- Innovative design: Automatic deployment and stabilization by hydraulic force. Compact storage after deployment
- Easy to use and maintain: quick, tool-free installation, suitable for everyone. No maintenance required, apart from cleaning with clear water and storing in a dark place.
- Modular: can be placed on any surface without anchoring, and can be extended with Velcro fasteners.
Conditioning
Water-Gate barriers can be packaged in containers, crates or individual rolls, for easy handling and emergency deployment.
Container : for outdoor storage and lengths between 300 and 1000 meters
Boxes : can be handled by pallet truck, clark or trailer. The barriers are pre-assembled for rapid deployment and storage.
Individual roll : ideal for storing small to medium lengths, due to their small volume.
Certified technology
Water-Gate barriers are certified by FM Global, one of the world’s largest insurance companies, according to extremely strict criteria and quality standards.
