At INTERSCHUTZ 2026, Haawal from Oslo will present its flood barriers and share insights from practical, real-world flood protection work. The stated goal is to raise awareness of how cities, fire departments, civil protection agencies, and the private sector can improve flood preparedness, reduce flood damage, and conserve valuable resources during flood events. According to Haawal, the company offers a practical and concrete way to mitigate the negative consequences of flooding.

Feedback from existing users has shown Haawal that the system can be used in a wide range of applications: to protect individual buildings, to secure longer stretches along rivers or coastlines, to temporarily dam rivers and streams, and even to create temporary water reservoirs for firefighting.

A key factor is its adaptability to a wide range of conditions. Haawal enables the protection of straight sections, corners, and curves without the need for special components. A single system works for many scenarios. It also ensures effective sealing on various types of surfaces. The system is quick and easy to use. No tools are required. It can be stored compactly and is designed for repeated reuse.

Installation is intuitive and can be taught and practiced as part of a municipality’s flood preparedness efforts. Haawal is made of durable materials that can be reused time and again, making it a long-term and flexible solution. At the Norwegian booth, visitors can view the Haawal flood barriers up close, handle the system, and get a sense of how it works in practice.
