Flood barriers

testuje se additional info

The flexible flood barrier provides a quick and effective solution for creating a mobile flood embankment. It is an effective and more efficient alternative to traditional sandbags. After folding, it takes up little space, making it easy to store and transport. The flood sleeves are made from a three-layer PVC fabric, ensuring resistance to mechanical wear and adaptability to uneven terrain.

Unlike traditional flood barriers, which are often heavy and inconvenient to use, these flexible fabric barriers are easy to assemble and disassemble. They do not require any additional construction or support – just unfold the product and fill it with water.

Advantages – Exflooder flood dams

Mobility: Thanks to their flexibility and compact size, large numbers of dams can be transported quickly and efficiently to the location requiring intervention.

Easy to store: When folded, flexible flood barriers occupy just a few percent of their target volume, requiring relatively little storage space.

Practical connection: Another barrier is placed in the sleeve, which, after filling, fills the sleeve with its volume and creates a tight connection (option available in the model with a sleeve). Other types of connections are available upon request.

UV: The PVC fabric is protected with a special varnish, extending its lifespan during exposure to UV radiation.

HF technology: The use of high frequency welding (HF) ensures a permanent connection of fabrics in critical areas of the product.

Made in Poland: We are a Polish company that manufactures mobile flood barriers and other products.

Durable fabric: A special technical fabric with a polyester mesh provides the necessary strength of the product.

7 year warranty: The Exflooder flood barrier is covered by a 7-year warranty.

Exflooder Flood barrier elements

Filling the flood barrier

Storz connections enable quick and effective connection to the hose, which is especially important in emergency situations when time is of the essence.

Handle

Universal handles with an anchor strap for strong winds or small slopes.

Emptying the barrier

A large 146 mm drain ensures quick emptying and facilitates cleaning of dams.

Pocket for a soft delivery hose

Space for placing the pressure hose.

Connecting sleeve

Self-tightening sleeve with additional eyelets. After filling, the sleeve clamps on the dam inside it, creating a tight connection.

Vent

The air vent is very easy to use – it ensures proper pressure in the flood protection sleeve.

Barrier operating principles

The Exflooder flood barrier works by filling a flexible sleeve made of durable PVC fabric with water. Once deployed at the site, the barrier adapts to the flat ground to form a tight flood barrier. Water fills the barrier, imparting it with stability and the ability to stop incoming water. The barrier components can be connected using clamping sleeves, enabling the construction of long protective dykes. Drainage takes place via a large drain flange, making it easy to dismantle and prepare the barrier for re-use. Exflooder flood barriers require anchoring to the ground. Depending on the ground type (e.g. soil, sand, asphalt, concrete), the correct length and type of anchor must be selected to ensure barrier stability.

How to fill the sleeve

Check the area – remove any sharp items e.g. stones, glass, branches that may damage the barrier.
Place the sensor in a suitable location
Unroll it.
Fill with water, using a suitable filling connection.
Use anchors to stabilise the barrier or spread 2-3 sandbags along the barrier instead.
After the barrier is used, empty it and clear it of adhering elements e.g. grass, branches.

Connecting flood barriers

Connecting Exflooder flexible flood barriers is simple and involves placing one end of the barrier in the sleeve of the next one. After filling, the sleeve clamps on the dam inside it, creating a tight connection. This makes it possible to build flood embankments of any length, with obtuse-angle connections.

Who is the flexible flood barrier NOT intended for?

Although Exflooder flexible flood barriers are a versatile and effective solution, they are not suitable for every situation.

They are not suitable at very sharp or uneven surfaces: If the protected area is full of sharp stones, glass shards or other elements which may damage the material, the damage may not fulfil its intended use. In such cases, it may be necessary to prepare the ground in advance.
In permanent flood defences: If you are looking for a permanent solution, the flexible barrier is not suitable, as despite its durability, it is designed as a mobile system used in ad hoc interventions. Steel or concrete flood barriers may be better as permanent protection.
At locations without access to water: Flexible barriers must be filled with water, thus at locations where it cannot be delivered quickly (e.g. at extremely remote, dry areas), their use may be problematic.

The knowledge of when a flexible barrier is not the optimal solution allows the protection tools to be better adapted to the individual needs. In thes case of questions, our advisers will gladly help toy find the optimal solution (contact)

Products

Flexible flood barriers are one of the best solutions for flood protection, especially when safeguarding garage doors, entrances, or other elements of the building that are at risk of flooding during heavy rainfall or flooding events. Thanks to the flexible technical fabric, the barriers are easy to transport and store, making them suitable for various locations requiring flood protection.

Choosing the right type of flood barrier depends on your individual needs and conditions. It’s important to select the correct length and height of the dam to ensure maximum protection against flooding. If you need technical support, please contact our consultants. The products are also ready for direct purchase in our online store.
