Flood management has taken front stage as the need for protection has become so necessary - all over the country councils have been caught unprepared for the climate change in areas such as Norfolk, Cornwall, Ireland, Cumberland, Yorkshire and many other counties around the UK and has cost the insurance companies hundreds of millions last year alone, and long term forecasts anticipate no respite during the coming years.
Besides the inherent poor performance as a flood water barrier, sandbags are difficult to store, taking up substantial warehousing for unknown periods of time in anticipation of an emergency. Excessively heavy and difficult to carry, each weighing approximately 15 - 20kg, sandbags are not easily disposed of and serious on-costs are incurred by truck them away after use. They are not environmentally friendly for they cannot be emptied into the earth after use. Sandbags not only leak and filter water through them, but they are also capable of carrying infectious diseases emanating from sewage polluted water.
One Pack of Two HydroSacks | Innovative & Eco-Friendly | Sandbag Alternative
“HydroSack is available in various colours according to the situation required and they have handles for easy movement, especially in emergency conditions. The unique three-section structure of the HydroSack allows a controlled spread which prevents the contents from moving from side to side.”
HydroSack is the new, modern method to create a highly effective barrier to the threat of flood water in domestic and commercial properties. It is the perfect substitute for the old, traditional sandbag which is not only less effective but is also difficult to handle, labour intensive and a potential health hazard.
When soaked with water before installation, each HydroSack absorbs up to 20L of water. It lets the water in but refuses to let the water out, even when punctured. When built into layers the HydroSack wall produces a highly effective barrier to flood water.
Before use, each HydroSack weighs a mere kilo. Being so light it is fast and easy to handle and place into key positions - when flooding threatens every second counts. Soak the HydroSacks in water and in minutes they are inflated and ready to settle into position and, because of their suppleness, they fit into openings and doorwells more snugly, improving their flood prevention qualities.

One Pack of Two HydroSnakes | Innovative & Eco-Friendly | Sandbag Alternative
“Use HydroSnake when flood prevention and direction of excess water is needed. ”
The HydroSnake has the ability to absorb up to 20L of water or sewage and thereafter hold back further excess.
Before use the HydroSnake weighs less than 0.5kgs. On contact with the water the super absorbent polymer crystallises and expands to hold up to 40 times its own weight.
HydroSnakes are an essential accessory for plumbers or wherever there is danger of flooding. They will retain their bulk for up to 3 months and eco-friendly. To dispose simply slit the pads and release the contents into the earth or sewage.
