Eco-Friendly and Convenient Flood Protection: Self Inflating Sandbags

October 15, 2012

Floods are ranked the the #1 most common natural disaster in the United States. One inch of water can do serious damage to a home or business. Traditionally, sandbags have been effectively used to prevent water from damaging a structure, but storage can often raise issues. Self inflating sandbags are a viable alternative to traditional sandbags for protecting against floods and water damage.  The units are light, compact and easily stored. But they quickly absorb water expanding to full size in 3 to 5 minutes creating an effective water barrier. These bags are eco-friendly and biodegradable making them an excellent solution for flood prevention and water damage.
