Introduction
In the UK, 1 in 6 homes are at risk of flooding due to being located in an 'immediate flood risk' area, and 40% of businesses are unable to recover from catastrophic loss following a flood. Flooding, and flood management, costs the UK around £2.2 billion each year.
The Premium Flood Protection Cube provides an environmentally friendly, cost-effective solution to protecting both commercial and domestic properties from damage and loss caused by surface water flooding. It is not only effective at forming a barrier but can also be used to divert the flow of water. Fabricated with integral handles, the Flood Cube is easy to handle and deploy ready for activation.
Composition
- Outer Bag: Ultrasonic, non-woven polypropylene
- Internal Fill: Hydrophilic nano-SAP
