Many people ask us the same questions when they first see the Haawal Flood Barrier:
“How does it stay in place?”
“What about uneven ground?”
The answer is actually quite simple.
The Haawal Flood Barrier is designed to use the force of the water itself to stabilize the system against the ground.
A flexible membrane helps seal uneven surfaces, while the barrier adapts to different terrain such as asphalt, grass, concrete, and cobblestone.
The system has been successfully deployed in several real-world flood events. A notable example is Storm Hans in Norway, where the Haawal Flood Barrier helped protect Eidsvoll town centre from flooding.
No flood protection system can stop every force created by nature. But preparation, speed, and flexibility can make a significant difference when flooding occurs.
