Synthetic Flood Walls Offer Protection

For decades our team has been helping government agencies and engineers design flood wall solutions. Our products are designed to prevent overtopping, internal seepage, piping of stratum, surface erosion and rodent damage. They can also be used for cantilevered floodwalls in levee repair projects. In addition to being proven as a flood protection solution, our products are also:

  • •  More sustainable and environmentally-friendly
  • •  Tested, used, and proven by the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) for 15+ years
  • •  Used to replace expensive, corrosive steel sheet piling (such as PZ-27)
  • •  Cost-effective: flood wall and levee repair projects can be completed for half the cost of projects using conventional materials
  • •   

Flood Walls to Protect Against Climate Changes

Flood protection has become a bigger focus for municipalities, corporations, manufacturing facilities, and homeowners as they begin to understand and respond to the impacts of global climate change. All three of our sheet piling material options have been used to design flood wall or levee repair solutions.

 

Cost Saving Levee Repair Designs

The potential cost savings of using alternative materials like synthetic sheet piling are substantial as we face the necessary upgrade or repair of thousands of miles of levees and earthen dams that do not meet current standards or 100-year flood design criteria. By offering long-lasting, cost effective sheet piling profiles, we have been able to lower material and installation cost for critical flood protection construction.

 

Leverage Our Synthetic Structures Design Expertise

We would like to help you lower project costs and provide better flood protection for your projects. Our team has worked on hundreds of crucial flood protection projects. Leverage our experience and learn how to value engineer traditional designs with synthetic sheet piling.
