HESCO USA

Individual buildings or structures can be quickly protected from floods by the installation of the HESCO Concertainer flood control system. A required protective elevation can be reached without sacrificing space for a wide base. 100’ of a three foot tall flood barrier can be constructed in less than 40 minutes.

One major cause for flooding during Hurricanes is the fact that levees are not armored and are susceptible to erosion and ultimately structural failure.

Additional protection is now being applied to the existing levees that have previously failed. HESCO Concertainer Units are being used to support existing sheet piles that extend from earthen levees. By adding HESCO Concertainer Units, much needed support is added – over 1,000 lbs. per linear foot.

In many instances levee systems subside over time. HESCO Concertainer units can be applied atop an existing levee to quickly add height of earthen protection.
