C152 Heavy Duty

152 cm Flood Barrier for Reliable Flood Protection

C152 Header image – 2

The C152 is a model within our Heavy Duty product range, featuring the same stable, robust, and durable construction as the other flood barriers in the series. With only two aluminum sheets and two connection rods required per section, the C152 is an incredibly efficient system for achieving an impressive 152 cm dam height in a short time.

Geodesign Barriers' C152: The Perfect Balance Between Height and Speed

Introducing the C152 Heavy Duty flood barrier, one of five models in our Heavy Duty series. Like its siblings, the C152 features a triangular metal support that folds out and is connected with two connection rods. Aluminum sheets are hung on the connection rods, and the barrier is covered with a laminate-coated high-density polyethylene membrane to create a seal against the ground.

As with all Geodesign Barriers, the C152 can be set up without any tools, machinery, or groundwork. The water pressure pushes the barrier into the ground and makes it self-anchoring.

The C152 uses only two aluminum sheets and two connection rods, similar to the C122. However, with a larger aluminum sheets, the C152 achieves an impressive dam height of 152 cm. The barrier strikes an optimized balance between height and speed, providing quick and efficient protection against flooding.

The Solution for Tricky Angles and Turns.

The C152 Heavy Duty flood barrier offers maximum flexibility with the ability to turn in 15-degree increments. Our innovative design utilizes adjustable connection rods and specially designed corner elements to allow for quick and easy assembly of hearing sections.

Not only can the C152 Heavy Duty barrier be built to suit a variety of angles, but our specially designed corner elements can be used for both outer and inner turns, making the process even more streamlined.
