FLOOD PREVENTION SOLUTIONS
Self Activating Systems
Typically, self-activating barriers are installed at openings, roadways, or doorways. They include poly tarp systems that open with oncoming water, major structural components that are built into the ground and systems that are attached to a structure and in most cases do not rely on any means of municipal power.

SCFB Dutch System
A unique effective flood defence system to protect people and
property from inland waterway floods caused by heavy rainfall, gales
or rapid melting snow. This system has been developed in the
Netherlands to provide optimal protection against extreme high
water levels. The barrier systems have proved to be the best flood
protection and has already been built and installed in several
countries around the globe. Rapid onset flooding cost by heavy
rainfall causes the greatest damage to underground parking,
metrostation and all other lower entrance. For deploy of the more
traditional type of manually operated flood-doors and floodgates
systems you need warning time and time to set up the barrier which
you don’t have in these cases. The SCFB overcomes all the issues
associated with these flood defences, and has the considerable
advantage of not requiring any intervention during a flood warning,
the SCFB using the approaching floodwaters to automatically raise
the barrier; effectively using the problem to create the solution.
