Advantages of Hesco Barriers for Flood Control
Rapid deployment to save time in emergencies Shipped folded, they can be unfolded and connected on-site, then filled with sand and soil using loaders. They enable emergency flood levees to be built in a very short time, which is dozens of times more efficient than traditional sandbags, perfect for sudden flood situations.
Resist water impact and block floating debris Constructed of galvanized welded wire mesh with an impermeable geotextile liner, the structure has good integrity. It can withstand scouring from fast-flowing floodwater and gravel carried by floods. It is not easy to break or collapse like sandbags, and prevents soil loss and bank erosion.
Flexible modular combination Units can be freely connected, stacked and turned to fit irregular terrain such as river courses and low-lying areas around factories and power stations. You can extend or raise the flood barrier as needed.
Low transportation and storage cost Empty cages are folded for shipment, taking up little space. For the same flood defense length, the freight cost is far lower than concrete retaining walls and precast components, convenient for large-scale emergency transportation.
Reusable and cost-efficient After floods recede, you can empty the fill material, clean and dry the cages for reuse. The galvanized layer delivers great corrosion resistance, with a much longer service life than single-use sandbags.
Anti-seepage and anti-washout The inner geotextile prevents sand leakage and keeps the levee stable. It can be used for flood containment as well as slope stabilization and erosion control.
