Flood Prevention for Heavy Rainfall Events. JUMBO BLOCK® means Large-Volume Protection.

Innovative Solutions for Hazard Prevention: Retention in Sealed and Built-Up Areas

Climate change is permanently altering our environment, and the increasing frequency of heavy rainfall events presents a serious threat, leading to floods and high water that can cause significant damage. To counteract these effects and support hazard prevention, innovative solutions are essential.


Targeted Rainwater Retention


Retention, or the targeted storage of rainwater, is a crucial measure for preventing flooding, especially in sealed and built-up areas. However, conventional construction methods often fall short in creating effective retention options, necessitating a more innovative approach.


The JUMBO BLOCK® System


The JUMBO BLOCK® system is an innovative solution that allows for the creation of flood spaces and water reservoirs in small, confined areas. By using modular blocks that can be stacked and arranged into shafts and catch basins, the system achieves up to 66% space savings compared to conventional methods. These savings increase even further when the system is built over. This efficient use of space not only reduces costs but also contributes to environmental conservation.


Fast and Reliable Hazard Prevention


The JUMBO BLOCK® system provides a quick and dependable solution to minimize the impacts of climate change. It enables effective retention in urban, sealed, and built-up areas, helping to reduce flood risks and protect property and infrastructure from damage.


A Vital Contribution to Community Safety


The JUMBO BLOCK® system represents a significant advancement in hazard prevention. By facilitating retention in challenging environments, it helps communities effectively respond to the challenges posed by climate change and enhances the safety of our cities.


The Future of Hazard Prevention


Innovative solutions like the JUMBO BLOCK® system are key to making our cities more resilient and secure in the face of climate change. By embracing these technologies, we can safeguard our communities and build a safer, more sustainable future.

More about Retention

Innovative solutions for flood protection in industrial areas and the impact of the JUMBO BLOCK® system on industry and nature conservation.


Flood Protection for Industrial Areas

Challenges in Industrial Areas


Industrial areas are particularly vulnerable to the negative impacts of flooding, which can cause extensive damage to infrastructure, production facilities, and pose risks to both people and the environment. Effective flood protection is therefore increasingly crucial in these zones.


Innovative Flood Protection with JUMBO BLOCK®


The JUMBO BLOCK® system offers an innovative solution by enabling the targeted storage of rainwater in large-volume hollow blocks beneath road surfaces. This significantly reduces the risk of flooding in industrial areas. The modular design allows for flexible combination to achieve the necessary storage volume, effectively protecting infrastructure and production facilities from flood damage.


Reducing Surface Sealing


A key benefit of the JUMBO BLOCK® system is its ability to reduce surface sealing in industrial areas. By storing rainwater underground, the need for traditional retention basins or ponds is minimized, optimizing space use and preserving natural water resources.


Supporting Nature Conservation


The reduction in surface sealing also creates opportunities for nature conservation within industrial areas. Freed-up space can be repurposed for green areas, biotopes, or renaturation projects, promoting biodiversity and creating valuable habitats for plants and animals.


Sustainable Resource Use


The JUMBO BLOCK® system facilitates the sustainable use of rainwater in industrial areas. Collected rainwater can be reused for irrigating green spaces, cleaning purposes, or even in production processes, reducing overall water consumption and supporting sustainability in industry.


Conclusion


The JUMBO BLOCK® system provides an effective solution for flood protection in industrial areas, while also enabling sustainable rainwater management and promoting nature conservation. By reducing surface sealing, it allows for the creation of additional green spaces and the preservation of valuable habitats. Implementing the JUMBO BLOCK® system is not only a smart move for safety but also an essential step towards a more sustainable and environmentally friendly industrial landscape.


It's time to fully leverage the potential of the JUMBO BLOCK® system to protect industrial areas from flooding and enhance nature conservation efforts simultaneously.

JUMBO BLOCK® Solution

JUMBO BLOCK® Components

1️⃣ JUMBO BLOCK®
The core of the system – a massive, hollow, load-bearing concrete module (2.5 m x 2.5 m x 2.5 m) with an impressive capacity to support up to 792 tonnes. This block is designed for underground installation, forming the backbone of a modular and scalable retention system.


2️⃣ Sedimentation and Filtration Inside the Block
The built-in filtration system captures sediments and impurities within the JUMBO BLOCK® itself. This design prevents clogging and extends the lifespan of the system, while maintaining a continuous water flow.


3️⃣ Heavy-Duty Cover Plate
The cover plate provides an ultra-strong, load-bearing surface above the JUMBO BLOCK®. It enables heavy-duty applications like roads, airport runways, and industrial sites, while ensuring surface stability and protecting the system below.

A System of strength

4️⃣ Side Plate
Side plates are installed to enclose the JUMBO BLOCK® modules on the sides, preventing lateral water movement and ensuring system integrity. They help stabilize the overall structure and protect against shifting forces.


5️⃣ Base Plate
The base plate provides a stable foundation for each JUMBO BLOCK®, distributing the weight evenly and creating a secure, level base. This feature is essential for ensuring structural stability and longevity.


6️⃣ Sealing System
The sealing systems for JUMBO BLOCK® provide durable, waterproof solutions for module connections. Using high-performance adhesives and sealants, they securely seal joints and connections, preventing water loss and optimizing retention efficiency. Their flexible, durable materials ensure long-term functionality under varying conditions.
