[Useful Information] Tips on Flood Prevention Measures That Companies Should Implement, Taught by Disaster Prevention Specialists

Anyone can easily, quickly, and conveniently implement flood prevention measures with the foldable water barrier F-shield.

This is a water barrier made by Furukawa Electric to prevent flooding damage caused by typhoons, floods, and torrential rains, serving as an alternative to sandbags. It can be stored compactly when folded during normal times. In the event of a disaster, simply installing three components on the ground demonstrates excellent water resistance and stability. It can quickly respond to sudden flooding damage. 【Features】 ■ Easily and securely prevents flooding into buildings! - It has excellent water resistance with a height of 50 cm and a leakage rate of approximately 200 liters/(h·m²). (Note) This result is based on internal tests referring to JIS A 4716. (Note) The values are experimental values at a water level of 50 cm and are not guaranteed. ■ Can be stored compactly and is easy to manage! - It can be folded and stored in shelves or tight spaces, so it does not take up much space. ■ Anyone can easily and quickly carry and assemble it! - It can be quickly and easily installed in various locations such as in front of entrances, factories, underground parking lots, and garages without the need for construction. - It can be set up in about 2 minutes for a 2-meter opening. - It is lightweight, making it easy for women to carry.

Lightweight, quick, easy, and convenient flood prevention product compared to sandbags: Folding flood barrier F-shield.

Mr. Kamiyama is involved in the management of two companies: Miyauchi Construction Co., Ltd., which is engaged in the construction industry, and Koshiki Fruit Garden Co., Ltd., which is involved in the production, processing, sales, and café operation of passion fruit. "The area around our company is at a low elevation, and due to the phenomenon known as 'abiki,' the road can become flooded as the sea level rises and falls repeatedly in a short time. Three years ago, for the first time, we piled sandbags in front of the fruit processing factory, but it was a very challenging task. The occurrence happened around 8 PM, and I had been drinking, so I couldn't drive the truck. Therefore, I asked a colleague to transport the sandbags stored in the fire department's warehouse by car. 'Abiki' can cause the water level to rise in about 30 minutes. I felt that there wouldn't be enough time to go and get the sandbags and stack them." "The foldable water barrier F-shield takes up little space when stored folded and can be set up quickly. It is lightweight, making it easy for elderly women working at our processing factory to handle, and it looks better than sandbags, so we can safely place it in visible areas. I want to be well-prepared for sudden 'abiki' with the foldable water barrier F-shield."

**Expert in Power Distribution Board Manufacturing: Takahashi Electric Co., Ltd.** Mr. Watanabe works in the General Affairs Department of Takahashi Electric Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the manufacturing of power distribution boards that are indispensable in modern social infrastructure. **Risk of Rainwater Intrusion into the Factory! Safety Measures and Risk Management at the Sheet Metal Factory** "At the entrance of our sheet metal factory, a small forest is encroaching, and during typhoons or heavy rain, there is a risk that rainwater will flow from the forest into the factory entrance. Since there are expensive equipment such as laser processing machines inside the factory, it was necessary to implement risk management to prevent rainwater from entering the factory entrance. We considered stockpiling sandbags, but they are heavy and deteriorate quickly, causing the contents to spill out. Therefore, we concluded that sandbags were insufficient as a safety measure for the factory." **Preparing for Flood Damage to the Factory with the Folding Water Stop Board F-shield** "The folding water stop board F-shield is easy to handle because it is foldable, allowing for timely storage and movement. Additionally, its bright yellow color enhances visibility, which is also appealing. I like that it is more durable compared to sandbags, making it user-friendly."
