FloodFree Flood Barriers

06/11/2026

Not all demountable flood barriers are created equal.

When considering demountable or removable flood barrier solutions, it's easy to focus on upfront cost. But when a flood event occurs, the real measure of value is simple: will the barrier protect people, property and critical assets during a flood or heavy rainfall event?

Flood barriers need to be more than a physical obstruction. FloodFree barriers are specifically engineered, tested, manufactured and installed for site-specific flood mitigation applications, under processes supported by internationally recognised ISO-accredited quality management systems. Just as importantly, each system is designed to integrate with the existing built environment across a range of site conditions.

The difference often comes down to factors that aren't immediately visible, including the engineering behind the solution, how it interfaces with existing structures, structural integrity, long-term durability, maintenance requirements and operational reliability.

Investing in a flood barrier is ultimately an investment in risk reduction, business continuity and resilience against the financial impacts of severe weather events.

It was great to see the stainless steel industry come together on the Gold Coast last month for another successful ASSDA Conference.

We were pleased to have a member of the AWMA team in attendance, connecting with industry colleagues, learning from leading experts and gaining insights into the opportunities and challenges facing our sector.

ASSDA continues to provide a valuable forum for industry collaboration, innovation and professional development.

Congratulations to all award winners on your well-deserved achievements and thank you to the ASSDA team for delivering another fantastic event.

FloodFree barriers continue to protect townships across Victoria..

📣Following advice from North Central Catchment Authority and Bureau of Meterology, the temporary flood barrier at Camp Street will remain in place until early next week as a precautionary measure.

Recent flooding has left Camp Street saturated and keeping the barrier in place will help minimise the risk of damage to the sealed road surface while conditions continue to dry out.

It will also enable Council to respond quickly should the river rise again with further rainfall expected this week.

The side access panel will remain open to allow pedestrian traffic through the area.

Council will continue to monitor conditions and work with relevant agencies to support community safety.

Please continue to obey all road closure signage and avoid the area where possible.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

As flood warnings spread across Victoria, FloodFree barriers continue to be deployed, protecting commercial sites, critical infrastructure and communities ahead of rising water levels.

Preparation is key. Early deployment can significantly reduce flood impacts and help keep people, assets and operations protected.

Stay safe. Stay informed. Stay out of floodwater.

Flood water comes fast. Relentless. Unforgiving.
In moments like these, there’s no time to prepare, you need protection that’s already there.

With FloodFree’s Tilting Flood Barriers, property is defended instantly, with passive flood barriers rising into place as the water approaches.

When the floodwater has passed, life returns to normal. When the water recedes, the barrier retracts, returning to its discrete position. Ready… but never in the way.

Concerned about water damage from flood events or stormwater overflows? Knowing your options matters.

If your property is exposed to flood risk, the right flood barrier solution can help protect your home, reduce damage and provide peace of mind. To be effective, it needs to suit your site, respond to local flood behaviour and align with how you live and use your property.

FloodFree’s 'Design Considerations for Home Owners' page of the new website, explains what to think about before choosing a flood barrier, including:

* How floodwater may affect your property
* What types of flood barriers are available
* Manual vs self-deploying systems
* Practical, long‑term protection for your home
