Use Swedish-made flood barriers that don't require sandbags for flood prevention!
Numerous achievements in Europe. A reusable water barrier that replaces sandbags.
The INERO water barrier was developed in Sweden and is a reusable water barrier adopted in various parts of Europe. It stands independently by simply connecting the units on the ground, eliminating the heavy labor associated with traditional sandbag work. After flooding, it can be cleaned and reused, achieving both waste reduction and cost savings. This trusted solution, which has been active in European government offices, factories, and logistics facilities, will also be introduced in Japan. It protects a wide range of locations, such as in front of factory and warehouse shutters and entrances to commercial facilities, from sudden heavy rain and internal flooding.

Detailed information

【Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency】 As a preparation for flood control measures both domestically and internationally, a total of 5,000 meters of H80 type flood barriers have been procured and deployed, with regular training conducted under the guidance of Inero. In 2016, the Baltic States, Finland, and Romania adopted them, and in 2017, Croatia implemented them in collaboration with the EU. Tests regarding functionality, stability, and operability have been completed, and they have protected assets from flooding during multiple emergency deployments.

The French Ministry of the Interior and Overseas Territories requested INERO to conduct a demonstration in Méry-sur-Oise to verify the effectiveness of the INERO water stop board (assembly speed, water-stopping ability, resistance to waves, driftwood, and floating debris, as well as disassembly and repackaging).
-
[UK Environment Agency] A large number of H100 type flood barriers, including corner sections, have been adopted. They are centrally stored by a logistics company in preparation for deployment across the UK. Staff have received training on a scale of thousands and have a proven track record of operational use along the rivers in Newcastle during storms. Before implementation, leak tests and wave resistance tests were conducted by an independent third-party organization.
-
【EU Funding Project】 The six Balkan countries, including Turkey, introduced H80 type water stop boards with corner sections, totaling 2,800 meters. Training was conducted in addition to joint exercises in Germany, with individual training in each country, and further joint sessions in Croatia. Over 500 participants from 12 countries took part in practical deployment and operational training based on assumed flood disaster scenarios.
