Facts

  • The AquaRockBag® filling and installation process is quick, safe and easy which results in big savings on labour costs. (In this project the bags were pre filled and transported to the site and immediately installed.) 
  • The AquaRockBag® provides unique solutions for temporary support in emergency situations where life and property are on the first place. 
  • AquaRockBags® absorb water energy, preserving natural processes and minimizing the impact on the substrate. 
  • The AquaRockBag® in this case due to the high performance will remain 18 months.
