Fernco Floodbags
Fernco Floodbags are absorbent bags filled with a super-absorbent polymer (SAP), designed to protect properties from flooding. This innovative solution is easy to store and offers a more effective alternative to traditional sandbags, which often fail to meet expectations.
They efficiently block or divert floodwater from entering property thresholds. The highly absorbent material prevents further water from passing once fully soaked. Environmentally friendly, they are made from biodegradable materials. Fernco Floodbags are ideal for soaking up leaks and spillages in hard-to-reach areas, and their quick and easy installation involves just three simple steps. They are also easy to transport and store.
The Fernco Floodbag is a proven, multi-functional flood protection system that can be used both indoors and outdoors. This robust, sand-free floodbag creates an instant barrier against floodwaters within minutes.
As a more convenient and space-saving alternative to traditional sandbags, Fernco Floodbags are filled with a super-absorbent polymer that soaks up water, forming a taut, mess-free floodbag that remains effective for months. Each bag is designed to absorb around 20 litres of water and, when placed in a row, can keep out approximately 18cm (7 inches) of water to protect your property.
Ready in just three simple steps, the Fernco Floodbag can be deployed in minutes without any need for specialist equipment or expertise. Simply soak the bag in water for at least five minutes, place the expanded bags next to each other, and layer them to form a solid barrier.
Clean, dry, and easy to store, the bags do not degrade over time, and unlike sandbags, there’s no sand to clear away afterwards. They can also be used dry to absorb leaks from water systems and appliances inside the home.
