This product simply requires water to be activated and expands to full capacity in 3-5 minutes. Once the product has been immersed/soaked in water it can be used to build a dam in the same way as traditional sandbags and remain inflated for up to 8 weeks.

Self Inflating Sandbags Specification

Our Eco Inflatable Sandbags have the Internationally recognised SGS certification and therefore meet all safety and product tests. Lightweight, easy to transport and carry. Each bag weighs only 432 grams prior to use, thus eradicating any Health and Safety issues caused by lifting heavy weights.

In addition, if you do not have Sandbags stored at home and rely on the local council, they may not be able to get to you because of flooding already blocking roads. For these reasons, it makes sense to stock up on Sandbags BEFORE flood warnings, not wait until it may be too late.
