DefenCell Flood Barriers
In partnership with J&S Franklin of the UK and Maccaferri of Italy, Spearpoint offers a modular range of barriers. These systems are in extensive use worldwide, with NSN and test data available. The barriers are available in 2 types, geotextile and gabions, and multiple sizes.
DefenCell barriers have been evaluated and certified for flood mitigation use by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Elements of this testing can be seen on YouTube here.
DefenCell barriers, both geotextile and gabion, were used successfully in 2022 by South Australian State Emergency Service (SA SES) for flood mitigation of the Murray River.
The DefenCell barriers are in extensive use by the US Army Corps of Engineers in support of flood mitigation efforts undertaken by the US Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
