07 Apr What if your organization could access an effective flood emergency solution that’s “all boxed up” into one easy product?
Continuing our theme of spring flooding, let’s focus on our solution for flooding in expansive areas. That’s right, we’ve got organizations and large properties covered here too!
When properties and public spaces share shorelines with rivers, lakes, and watersheds, flood protection becomes an annual concern. Rapidly responding to the challenge of major, actively flowing floodwater emergencies is a costly venture on several levels. Impacted property owners, municipalities, and conservation authorities are therefore equally concerned with finding cost-effective, easy-to-use systems that are 100 percent reliable investments.
Traditional sandbag barriers have long been the go-to solution, but they come with challenges like labor-intensive setup, storage issues, and environmental concerns. But what if we told you there’s a better way to cope with this headache? Our BoxBarrier® Flood Protection system is a modern, efficient, and eco-friendly alternative that revolutionizes wide-scale, temporary flood defense.
What is the BoxBarrier®?
EHS Sales Ltd.’s BoxBarrier® is an innovative flood defense system designed for quick deployment and removal. Unlike traditional methods, it uses water to combat water—offering a sustainable and reusable solution. This system requires no special equipment; a simple pump fills the units with water once they’re in place, effectively creating a sturdy barrier against floodwaters.
Ideal for municipal and regional flood preparedness
Beyond protecting individual homes, the BoxBarrier® is an excellent solution for municipalities and emergency response teams. When flood warnings arise, cities and organizations must act fast to protect infrastructure, roads, and critical buildings.
The BoxBarrier® system can be rapidly deployed by a small team, covering large areas in a fraction of the time it would take to place traditional sandbags. Since the units are reusable, municipalities can invest in a long-term flood mitigation strategy rather than continuously spending resources on one-time-use barriers. With easy storage and quick setup, this system enhances disaster preparedness, ensuring communities can respond effectively to sudden flood events.
Why is this product such an amazing solution?
💦 Easy to use with little training, just like sandbags
The BoxBarrier® is lightweight and can be set up rapidly. A three-person team can position and fill approximately 100 meters of barrier per hour, significantly reducing labor compared to sandbags.
💦 Efficiently deployed, and later stored
Its quick deployment capability ensures that organizations and caretakers can respond promptly to impending floods. Designed for practicality, up to 20 units can be stacked together, making storage and transportation straightforward. A system covering 250 linear meters fits comfortably into a standard 20-foot container, ensuring readiness without occupying excessive space.
💦 Versatile designs for variable and difficult locations
Thanks to a flexible, rubber strip on its underside, the BoxBarrier® adapts to various surfaces, including grass, pavement, mud, clay, and asphalt. Its field-tested design also allows it to navigate curves and corners, allowing for watertight joins between existing walls and other structures. Overall, it provides comprehensive protection tailored to both diverse terrains and mixed-use settings. It’s the perfect solution for remote and rural locations, municipalities, greenspaces, park lands, and conservation authorities.
💦 The responsible choice for environmental safety
Beyond its functional advantages, our BoxBarrier® stands out for its environmental friendliness. It’s reusable and minimizes waste and health hazards associated with single-use sandbags. As an environmentally sound investment, ecology-minded stakeholders will be keen to support this system’s procurement. BoxBarrier® is the sensible choice to safeguard properties and reduce potential damages from flood emergencies.
