Flood disasters in recent years have made it very clear that
existing embankments or dykes, walls and river-bank
reinforcements, which were based on the data available when they
were built, are no longer able to cope with these volumes of water.
NOAH HSP floodwater protection panels – a pioneering highefficiency
system – are precisely designed to handle this kind of
situation.
Assembled in record time As water levels rise and reliable flood protection becomes a matter
of urgency, this lightweight, panel system, which is easy to
understand, can be assembled in a very short time. Three workers
can assemble a protective barrier no less than 100 metres long
and 1.25 metres high in about 3½ hours. Compared with this, the
conventional sandbag approach is thoroughly ineffective – and
would need as many as 130 helpers to achieve the same results.
The record-breaking assembly time for NOAH HSP is also superior
to anyother mobile or semi-mobile systems. Far-sighted people will
invest in NOAH preventive flood protection systems now, and if the
worst case scenario develops, they can enjoy the required level of protection very much more economically.
Remember: as floods
become more frequent, nature will win the race unless you are
faster.

Keep a step ahead of flood waters
Three things provide maximum flood protection: permanently installed base elements, extremely rigid hi-tech plastic panels inserted into them when a flood warning is imminent, and fold-out steel stabilising struts. Our Easy-up quickacting
fasteners make assembly quick and simple.
There are two reliable types of anchorage for the base elements, depending on what is required:
1. A plastic element recessed into the surface:
a base element recessed into a concrete foundation and provided
with a flush-fitting cover
This only marginally affects the landscape or local scenery
2. A base element that is attached to the top or the side of an existing flood
protection wall.
