FB-UNITS are robust flood protection barriers designed to safeguard personnel, infrastructure, and critical assets from rising floodwaters, coastal erosion and natural disasters.
Manufactured with rigorously tested, high-quality materials, these units ensure durability and reliability. Trusted by organisations worldwide, FB-UNITS offer an effective solution to mitigate the damaging effects of floods and other natural disasters, ensuring the safety and security of personnel, assets, infrastructure and essential resources.
Providing savings on logistics, installation and labour, FB-UNITS can be assembled by two personnel, even those with limited training, in less than 30 minutes, providing a convenient and practical solution for organisations to quickly and effectively protect against flood risks.
FB-UNITS are made of high-quality materials to ensure durability and effectiveness in protecting against flood waters.
Constructed with zinc-aluminium coated steel and a non-woven geo-textile lining, FB-UNITS can withstand strong waters, mitigating against damage and wear.
Each FB-UNIT can be filled with natural materials, like earth or sand, to maintain structural integrity when facing rising, fast-moving, and debris-filled waters.
These unique features make the FB-UNIT a reliable and robust solution for flood protection.
FB-UNITS can be used as a long-term preventative measure to protect against ongoing flood risks, such as along river banks.
Incorporating into natural landscapes by planting vegetation and covering FB-UNITS with earth creates a more permanent and aesthetically pleasing flood protection solution that blends seamlessly into the surrounding environment.
