At UK Flood Barriers, our remit is to overcome the challenges of protecting our environment in ways that are sustainable, innovative and future-proof. We advocate the twin concepts of innovation and sustainable passive systems which are non-intrusive and aesthetically pleasing, using the problem of flood water as the solution.

 

National activity in the arena of infrastructure, environment and energy is intense, and set to gather momentum in the years to come. The dual impact of climate change and building on flood plains has focussed attention on design and sustainability of structures. It is vital that consideration is given to next generation passive flood protection, conceived at design stage to ensure value engineering delivers buildings and infrastructure that are future-proofed against flooding.

Offering a turn-key service, from feasibility to project completion, UK Flood Barriers has established itself as first choice of delivery partner for forward-thinking companies in the public and private sector.

 

By engaging collaboratively with engineers, designers, architects, subcontractors and our supply chain at an early stage in project design, we can identify the optimum solution for flood defence projects, ensuring a successful outcome. In conjunction with our Technical Support Team and Design Department, our products can be integrated easily into finished design drawings.

 

We go beyond traditional demountable flood defence systems and gates involving manual intervention or a reliance on electrical and hydraulic operation. In order to minimise the risk of failure, new systems have been engineered to overcome the problems associated with the early-generation defences.

 

BSI Kitemark is widely recognised within our industry and certification gives our clients peace of mind when selecting a flood defence partner. Quality control is at the heart of our operations and we can demonstrate that our products are certified to a trusted quality mark and our systems adhere to strong quality processes.

Quality management systems and processes are driven by the company's strict adherence to its ISO 9001:2008 accreditation.

Site health and safety is a serious consideration for us as professional organisation operating in a niche sector within construction. We have gained accreditation in CHAS and Constructionline, and our opertives are subject to a progressive training programme.

 

 

Our flood defence products and systems work together to create flood resistant buildings and are highly suited to both retro-fitting and new developments.
