Kumkoy Basket Flood Defence Barrier

Based on our military grade KUMKOY  flood barriers can be deployed quickly and easily. They enable you to construct flood defenses without the need for specialized tradesmen or equipment. When KUMKOY units are joined and filled, their cellular structure and mesh framework create walls of exceptional strength and structural integrity, capable of halting fast moving, debris-filled flood waters.

 KUMKOY protects homes from 100-year flood events, hurricanes and seasonal storms. The barriers ensure critical infrastructure remains functioning so emergency service routes can stay open. MAdoors Basket type flood defence barrier can be planted with suitable grasses and vegetation to form a natural landscape, as well as a protective structure. This makes it ideal for areas at risk of regular flooding, like a river or canal bank.

 MAdoors' kumkoy is ideal for emergency flood response, offering significant advantages over traditional sandbags, in terms of cost, time and labor requirement for installation. A wall using Kumkoy earth-filled barrier can be filled by two people and a standard front-end loader in just 20 minutes. The equivalent sized wall of 1,500 sandbags can take 10 people up to 7 hours to fill and build. The unique design, strength and versatility of the unit means that corners can be constructed easily, shaping the protective storm barrier to its surrounding landscape.
