Designed to block and divert floodwater from property entrances, Fernco Floodbags are filled with a super absorbent polymer (SAP) that rapidly absorbs water, expanding to form a fully waterproof barrier.

Unlike conventional sandbags, which require manual filling, Fernco Floodbags come pre-filled and can be deployed swiftly in the event of a flood. They are vacuum-packed and flat-packed for convenient long-term storage, and unlike sandbags, they do not degrade or become porous over time, providing a safe, reliable, and quick solution in the battle against flooding.

Ryan Lockwood, Sales and Marketing Manager at Fernco, commented: “Flooding affects millions of people across the UK each year. With warnings from the Met Office about wetter-than-average winter months, Fernco is dedicated to providing robust, user-friendly products to safeguard homes and properties.

“At Fernco, we believe in challenging the status quo. For years, sandbags have been the go-to solution for people living and working in flood-prone areas, but they aren’t always the most effective option. Through our partnership with EDS, we can offer an innovative, superior product that, thanks to our extensive network of merchant partners, will be available across the country.”
