Business continuity in heavy rain

Even brief flooding can paralyse production plants, machinery and supply chains. JUMBO BLOCK retains rainwater beneath operational and traffic areas – and turns it into a usable resource.

Site protection

Flood protection for plants and business parks

Industrial and chemical sites are particularly vulnerable to flash floods. JUMBO BLOCK absorbs rainfall peaks in heavy-duty modules beneath the surface and prevents water from entering buildings, production halls and technical areas. Storage volume is scaled precisely to the site.

Effective flood protection is part of modern risk management and is increasingly considered by insurers.

Gain space

Storage below, operations above

Instead of land-hungry open retention ponds, the storage lies beneath yards, car parks and traffic areas. The surface remains fully available for operations, logistics or plant expansion – a real advantage where every square metre counts.

Water as a resource

Using rainwater in operations

Stored rainwater is not simply drained away but serves as a second water source. This reduces dependence on the drinking-water network and operating costs.

  • Cooling water for industrial processes
  • Fire-water reserve
  • Cleaning and process water
  • Irrigation of green areas

  • Operators near critical infrastructure

    Physical protection plus real-time monitoring and tamper-evident documentation – KRITIS-, NIS-2- and CRA-ready.

  • Durable rather than short-lived

    Solid concrete instead of plastic infill units: lasting operational stability and low follow-up costs over 80–120 years.

  • Fast planning

    Initial sizing, layout and costs with the Engineering Suite – a basis for investment decisions.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can stored rainwater be used as cooling water?

Yes. Depending on quality and treatment, the water can be used for cooling, cleaning, irrigation or as a fire-water reserve.

Does JUMBO BLOCK need extra space on site?

No. The installation lies beneath existing operational and traffic areas, which continue to be used above.

Is JUMBO BLOCK suitable for chemical sites?

Yes. With suitable SABA sealing systems – such as acid-resistant Ecoseal AC – the installation can be adapted to chemically demanding applications; design is project-specific.
