Description

At the mercy of the elements – Or protected by Elastocoast® (PU) Elastocoast® is a novel, intelligent polyurethane system. It is a two-component binder for revetments in coastal areas and stabilization of river banks. It is so open-pored that it deprives wave run-up of its destructive energy, thus demonstrating its strength to make shorelines and river beds substantially saver. Benefits The Advantages of Elastocoast® for Coastal Protection and River Bank Stabilization Makes coasts safer Porous and water-permeable Reduces the cost of construction and maintenance Absorbs the energy of impacting waves Environmentally sound Strong and with a long track record A single good idea often makes the difference between disaster and safety Coastal and flood protection with an intelligent PU system Experts predict that the sea level may rise by up to 50 centimeters in the coming years as a result of global warming. Of course, no scientist can foresee when and how this rise will actually occur – or the ultimate consequences. But it does highlight the obvious need to intensify coastal protection and flood prevention activities and particularly to raise the dikes. However, in view of the financial investment involved and for practical reasons such as lack of space, raising the dikes is rarely or not at all feasible. Another dangerous scenario is dike overtopping, since subsequent erosion on the land side inevitably results in complete dike failure. This is where Elastocoast® opens up a totally new dimension in coastal protection.
