How They Work: FloodSax – the Modern Sand Bag

FloodSax® – The innovative self-inflating flooding protection system is set to revolutionise the way you control damage due to flooding. The semi-porous inner liner contains hundreds of absorbent crystals which absorb water to 90% capacity in just 3 minutes. Once the water is in there, it stays there and the bags act just like traditional sandbags to keep flood water at bay.

FloodSax® are clean, compact and lightweight so they can be stored in homes and businesses prone to flash flooding or accidental water damage. FloodSax® enable people to defend themselves and react immediately to flooding which can potentially avoid a disaster altogether.

Fast, effective defence against flooding

FloodSax® patented technology and super lightweight design enables anyone to prepare for flooding, including the elderly and people with disabilities. FloodSax® are not heavy or dirty like traditional sandbags which means they can be used indoors and outdoors. FloodSax® are also 100% environmentally safe.

Hard work made easy

We all know traditional sandbags are labour intensive requiring more manpower to handle and deploy but not with FloodSax®.

FloodSax® enables a rapid response in an emergency

FloodSax® are totally self-contained so there is no sand or bags to fill and the fact they are compact and lightweight means you can distribute thousands more FloodSax® than traditional sandbags with fewer people and smaller vehicles.
There is no denying that even with pre-made sandbags, the time and effort involved reacting to a flood is made a whole lot easier (and faster!)with FloodSax®.
