Floods are becoming more commonAre you prepared?With the growing number of extreme weather conditions, companies and individuals are experiencing increasing costs associated with flood damage. These costs are realized through both the physical property damage caused by the flood waters and the costs associated with the recovery and post-flood return to business. NOAA estimated the cost impact of Hurricane Ian in 2022 at over $112 billion. Flood damage costs are very high, although most companies continue to invest very little in flood damage prevention. Companies will carry flood insurance but do not realize the limits on what is actually covered in the event of flood damages, disruption and recovery. |
Flood Damage PreventionFlood damage prevention costs are low compared to the high costs of flood damages. The best way to reduce this risk is to be prepared and protected against a flood disaster. Flood damage prevention is best implemented prior to the actual forecast for severe weather. |

Flood Protection does not have to be costlyThe GSB-H flood barrier provides fast, reliable and affordable flood protection. Installation is simple with vertical u-posts bolted on the sides of the opening and then then lightweight aluminum planks slide between the u-posts when needed. With short and moderate rain, it is often enough to insert a single plank. For long, heavy rain or flooding, additional planks are simply added to increase the barrier height as needed. The barrier u-posts are easily installed to existing buildings with no masonry work required. The system is designed with the flexibility to be installed either in front of openings or within openings. |
