The Task Green flood barrier panel system

Task Green, available form the McArthur Group, provides a flood barrier in the form of fencing, providing protection to those living in flood risk areas.

The fence construction is made from 100 per cent recycled materials.

It can also be used as boundary fence, sound barrier, agricultural pens and marine decking. Temporary flood protection is attained by embedding one or more boards below ground surface between post lengths. Rapid assembly of panels is achieved by fixing relevant height posts to the embedded base via steel inserts, and then slotting boards into post grooves and tightening with a clamp. Permanent barriers can be assembled using a supplied adhesive. Posts can be angled to achieve curved formations. Dismantling of the panels is carried out by reversing the process and the panels are re-useable. The composite polymer material is structured with internal cavities, providing strength, resistance to water, UV deterioration, and most chemicals. The material has a life span of 3-10 times that of ordinary timber products, needs minimal maintenance, and is recyclable at the end of its useful life. The system accommodates internal cabling for security, lighting and CCTV. Boards and posts can be cut on site, but the manufacturers would recommend that assembly should be undertaken by an Approved Installer. The manufacturer, Task Green, has been awarded a Green Apple Environmental Award.
