Eco-Dam - The Temporary Water Dam, A Civil Engineering Solution
If you need to create a dry worksite, our water inflated temporary dam is the essential cofferdam solution for your civil engineering needs.
The Eco-Dam is a water-filled flood barrier, fabricated from high-quality tensile fabric and European produced PVC. We manufacture using computer controlled high-frequency welding techniques to achieve seams that are both waterproof and gas-tight. This ensures the structural strength and durability of Eco-Dam will outlast other products on the market. As each Eco-Dam is factory pressure tested, it is the only CE Marked water-filled flood barrier on the market!
Advantages of the Eco-Dam Over Traditional Water Damming Methods:
The traditional methods – concrete, sandbags, trench building, timber or sheet piles, often prove costly, time-consuming and create complex safe disposal issues. Eco-Dam has a versatile design that helps to avoid all of these challenges, while also bringing many unique advantages:
- Environmentally safe
- Fast to deploy and simple to use without specialist knowledge
- Cost-effective to purchase, store and install
- Minimal storage space required when not in use
- Versatile overlapping modular design that allows for a variety of configurations
- No excessive install or clean-up costs
- The only CE Marked water-filled barrier on the market
- Safe to deploy on dry surfaces, static water and in dynamic water
- Reusable / Recyclable / Sustainable
Eco-Dam Specifications:
Each Eco-Dam has two inlet ports, two breathers and a minimum of four drain points, with an overflow outlet on the top. Lifting handles are provided at each end to assist with deployment, whether this is by hand or with support from a 360 excavator.
Our patented design includes an internal partition that locks into place when the barrier is exposed to uneven water pressure. As demonstrated in the illustration below, this ensures stability and prevents rolling, whilst allowing the water to still move freely inside.
