    Introduction to Fernco Floodbags

    Fernco Floodbag, is an innovative and proven flood protection system. Multi-functional and flexible to be used both inside and outside; the strong, sand-free floodbag provides an instant barrier against flood waters in minutes.

    An effective and easy to store alternative to traditional sandbags, Fernco Floodbag is filled with a superabsorbent polymer which simply absorbs the water to create a taut, mess free flood bag lasting months. Designed to absorb around 20 litres of water and when build in a row, will keep around 18cm or 7 inches of water out, to protect your property.

    Ready in 3 simple steps meaning it can be deployed in minutes and does not require any specialist expertise or equipment. Simply saturate the Fernco Floodbag in water for a minimum of approximately 5 minutes and just lay the expanded Fernco Floodbag next to each other and then the row on top across the joins below to make it a firm barrier.

    Clean, dry, easy to store and does not deteriorate over time – with no sand to clean up. Users can also use dry floodbags to absorb leaks from water systems and appliances inside the home.
