FLOOD Protection PRODUCTS

From simple stackable stop log flood barriers to fully automatic floodgates that operate only when required, Flood Control International design flood barriers with flood protection heights up to 30ft and unlimited length.

Automatic flood barriers can operate to self-raise with the rising flood water or be push button operated so that the flood barrier can be operated in advance of floods with full peace of mind. They can also be manually operated as required.

FCI’s specialist engineers design tailor-made flood gates that provide dependable flood protection whilst maximizing access availability. The floodgates can be designed to operate on a level threshold allowing unrestricted vehicle, pedestrian and disabled access.

Lightweight aluminum flood gates are available in widths up to 15ft and flood defense heights up to 6ft, and our steel floodgates are designed to any size. All flood gates can be automatic and push-button operated if required.

We make hinged flood gates, pivot flood gates and rolling flood gates in a full range of sizes.

FLOOD DOORS

Our floodproof doors are designed to protect against flood and unauthorized entry and when a flood door is shut, it is flood proof. Our unique gasket arrangement guarantees flood protection to full height or above and flood doors can be fitted with a range of access / egress and security features as required.

SPILL CONTAINMENT

Flood Control International offers a full range of chemical spill containment barriers to protect against chemical spillage or firefighting run-off.

Our secondary spill containment barriers can isolate a whole site or just part of a site to retain chemical spillages or fire-fighting runoff
on the premises.
