Flood Protection for Critical Infrastructure

The TF1 Tower situated at Quai du Point-Du-Jour and Avenue Le-Jour-Se-Lève has housed the network's headquarters since the beginning of its foundation. At 59 meters in height the building contains 14 floors which together provide a total floor area of 45,000 square meters. The building stands out in the neighborhood because of its cylindrical shape covered with reflective glass. The protection of this crucial building necessitates advanced flood defense systems which makes Geodesign Barriers an excellent solution.

Why Geodesign Barriers?

Geodesign Barriers stand out for their rapid installation process and exceptional protection against floods. The Heavy Duty C152 model has been developed specifically to handle extreme flooding conditions. This product combines durable steel construction with lightweight materials for quick setup without specialized tools. The barrier provides an eco-friendly and budget-friendly option compared to conventional sandbags while serving as a reusable flood protection system.

These temporary flood barriers function under substantial water pressure which allows for effective flood protection both in commercial settings and residential homes. The deployable barriers function as flood walls which create a strong barrier to hold back water and prevent flood damage.
