Flexible water barrier from Buitink – supplied by FabriQ™

Fast, robust and sustainable flood protection and water control

Buitink Technology has developed a flexible, collapsible water barrier that rolls out and automatically anchors itself to the ground when the water rises. The system requires no anchoring, electricity or tools – and can be used on grass, asphalt, gravel, slopes or rocky surfaces.

The barrier is 100% manufactured in Europe under strict quality standards – without prefabricated components from low-cost countries.

Areas of application

1. Flood protection

Protects cities, towns, industrial areas and infrastructure against flooding.
No electricity, no equipment and no digging – the system is rolled out and activated automatically when the water rises.

2. Flexible rubber dam

Perfect for draining lakes, rivers and ponds during inspection, maintenance or construction.
No interference with nature, no noise, no oil spills – the habitat remains intact.

3. Fire water reservoir

Quickly create a reservoir where there are natural water sources – in the mountains, forests, agriculture or cities.
A cost-effective alternative to water pipes, tanks and fixed infrastructure.

4. Collection of contaminated water

Collects and retains oil, foam or other contaminants floating on water.
Purified water is discharged via a bottom valve. Residues are collected and safely treated.
