FLOOD PREVENTION SOLUTIONS
Self Activating Flood Barriers
Typically, self-activating flood barriers are installed at openings, roadways, or doorways. They include poly tarp systems that open with oncoming water, major structural components that are built into the ground and systems that are attached to a structure and in most cases do not rely on any means of municipal power.

SCFB Dutch System
A unique effective flood defense barrier to protect people and property from inland waterway floods caused by heavy rainfall, gales or rapid melting snow. This Flood Barrier was developed in the Netherlands provides optimal protection against fast moving water flows, rigged to automatically deploy when needed. These systems have been installed in several countries around the globe. Rapid onset flooding cost by heavy rainfall causes the greatest damage to underground parking, metro-station and all other lower entrance. To deploy of the more traditional type of manually operated flood-doors and floodgates systems you need warning time, staff and time to set up the barrier. The SCFB overcomes all the issues associated with these flood defence's, and has the considerable advantage of not requiring any intervention during a flood warning, the SCFB using the approaching floodwaters to automatically raise the flood barrier; effectively using the problem to create the solution.
