Harlow's Casino, MS. 7.5' of water for 31 days.
PermaShield™
MADE IN THE USA
When filled with sand, PermaShield's patented trapezoid shape redirects lateral water pressure downward, holding back floodwaters and resisting rolling and sliding. Can be easily stacked to almost any height and sections can be strapped together with a 3000lb tensile strength nylon strap to build one continuous flood wall.
PermaShield has been rigorously tested by the USACE & ACES and is a proven stand-alone flood fighting barrier. The heavy duty, woven polypropylene coated fabric is highly resistant to damage from debris impacts and is resistant to contamination and seepage into the bag contents. If damage occurs, the design isolates damage to the impacted cell.
"In terms of price, effectiveness, and durability, this is a premier flood fighting product."
