Flood Defense Group Secures 2-Year Contract as the Primary Flood Barrier Supplier to US Government

Flood Defense Group is proud to announce that we have won a two-year contract as the primary supplier of temporary flood barriers to the US government through the US Army Corps of Engineers National Flood Fight Material Center (NFFMC). When overwhelming flood threats occur that are beyond the capabilities of state and municipal authorities, the US federal government steps in to protect its citizens and Flood Defense Group will be there to help.

The National Flood Fight Materiel Center at the Rock Island District was established to supplement district warehoused levels, provide cost-effective surge and replenishment support, and reestablish district stocks during recovery operations. The NFFMC maintains baseline inventories and IDIQ contracts with capabilities to provide flood fight materials support to districts throughout the Continental United States.

NFFMC has the technical understanding of watersheds throughout the USA to predict upcoming flood events with a high degree of accuracy and regional warehouses throughout the country to mobilize a flood defense response that is second to none around the world and Flood Defense Group is honored to support this esteemed organization.

Table of Contents Why Storm Season is More Dangerous How Our Flood Barriers Offer Stronger Defense Flood Wall Panels for Reliable Storm Protection Our Residential Flood Protection Solutions The Bottom Line Frequently Asked Questions Why Storm Season is More Dangerous Storm season is becoming more intense and unpredictable across the country. With stronger hurricanes, heavier rainfall, and rising sea levels, floods are affecting areas that never used to face such risks. This change is not temporary. According to NOAA, flooding remains one of the most damaging natural disasters in the United States every year. We see how these challenges affect homeowners, businesses, and entire communities. Every season, families lose their homes, and companies face costly shutdowns because of water damage. Our goal is to help people prepare before the storm arrives. That’s why we continue to design, build, and supply systems that work fast and perform under pressure. The more prepared we are, the more we reduce the impact. It is no longer enough to rely on outdated methods like sandbags. Flood conditions have changed, and the tools we use must evolve as well. How Our Flood Barriers Offer Stronger Defense We have worked with property owners across the country and seen firsthand how fast water can rise. That’s why we’ve made our barriers faster to deploy, easier to store, and more reliable in real conditions. When you get a flood warning, there’s no time to waste. Our systems are designed to go up quickly so you can protect your space right away. Compared to traditional sandbags, our flood barriers provide a better seal and are much easier to install. You don’t need a team or heavy lifting. Many of our systems, like our water-filled and air-filled barriers, can be set up by just one or two people. That means faster response and better coverage in less time. We also build our barriers to last. Floods are not one-time events, especially in high-risk areas. That’s why reusability is a key part of what we offer. Our barriers are strong enough to stand up to repeated use, season after season, without losing their protective power. And because different properties have different needs, we provide systems that adjust to fit. Whether it’s a small doorway or a wide building front, we make sure there’s a solution that works. Flood Wall Panels for Reliable Storm Protection Among our most trusted products are our flood wall panels. These are durable, easy to install, and built for long-term protection. We’ve seen them perform in homes, commercial buildings, and critical infrastructure sites with great success. Take our Hammerhead Aluminum Flood Wall System , for example. It’s a strong, dependable barrier that uses solid aluminum planks to form a tight seal. This system is ideal for locations that need heavy-duty protection against powerful floodwaters. It fits custom openings and stays in place, even during long storms. We also offer the Mayim Flood Barrier, which features a modular, interlocking design. It’s lightweight and easy to stack, yet offers excellent water resistance. It’s great for areas that need full perimeter protection or L-shaped coverage. Both systems have been used across the country in real storm events. From public works projects in coastal towns to residential homes in Florida, our flood wall panels are proving to be a reliable first line of defense. These panels are also reusable, meaning they can be stored and deployed as needed, saving costs over time. For families or property managers in flood-prone areas, this is an investment that brings real peace of mind. Our Residential Flood Protection Solutions We believe every property deserves the right level of flood defense. That’s why our range of flood protection solutions is one of the largest in the country. We don’t rely on a single product. We offer systems that work with different ground conditions, property sizes, and risk levels. Some homes may need a portable water-filled barrier. Others benefit more from a strong panel system. We have both, and more. From soil-filled barriers to flexible wall systems, we design solutions that match the situation. We understand that flood preparation starts with knowledge. That’s why we help our customers choose the system that fits their property best. Every home is different. Some have low entrances, while others face runoff from nearby streets. That’s why we take the time to match the right solution to the risk. Our residential customers rely on these systems to protect not just their buildings, but their belongings and families. And because these products are reusable, they’re ready for future seasons. With a proper plan in place and our equipment ready to deploy, families can feel more secure when storms approach. The Bottom Line We provide more than just barriers. We provide security. As flood events become more frequent, fast action and strong defenses are essential. Our wall panels offer a dependable shield against water damage. Along with our residential flood protection solutions , we help homeowners and businesses stay ahead of the storm. At Flood Defense Group, we believe in offering the right product for each situation. That’s why our lineup includes soil-filled, water-filled, air-filled, and anchored systems. And with products like the Hammerhead and Mayim barriers, we bring advanced technology to where it matters most. By choosing our systems, you’re not just preparing for one storm. You’re preparing for every storm that might come. And we’ll be here to support you with the best tools, real expertise, and tested protection that works when you need it most.
