Through our partnership with Radio Data Networks (RDN), the UK’s most trusted and reliable smart environmental risk reduction solution provider, we’re able to offer a highly advanced Early Warning System (EWS) to any site at risk of flooding.
The Early Warning System can be customised to the site owner’s specific requirements by our team of flood risk experts, providing them with highly accurate updates as a flood event unfolds to support the timely and safe evacuation of people before flooding actually occurs. It uses unobtrusive, state-of-the-art, smart water sensors, which are deployed at strategic locations around a site and work seamlessly with our other products, including the Flood Adaptive Platform.
Flood warning communications can be customised to the individual user’s requirements and sent by text message, telephone call, WhatsApp message or via a range of other digital platforms.
The Early Warning System’s integrated smart camera has night vision functionality, providing additional reassurance and helping site owners to make informed decisions in a flood emergency.
All sensor status and flood warning information is stored securely and can be accessed remotely via a live digital dashboard. The Early Warning System operates 24 hours a day for 365 days of the year, giving complete peace of mind to both the owners and residents of any site at risk of flooding.
Twelve years in the making, our ground-breaking, multi-purpose Flood Adaptive Platform is a mechanical jack system that’s designed to detect and react to flood conditions by automatically elevating above the rising water. It has already been successfully applied to modular buildings and mobile homes/holiday lodges, but it's potential is limitless.
Based on research we’ve commissioned, The Flood Adaptive Platform costs 40 per cent less to install, operate and maintain than other comparable methods of flood risk mitigation, including flotation-based systems.
By adopting a low-carbon, off-site approach to its assembly, the greenhouse gas emissions from manufacturing, operating and maintaining the Flood Adaptive Platform are up to 90 per cent lower than those from comparable methods of flood risk mitigation.
The Flood Adaptive Platform adheres to the relevant regulatory frameworks for quality and safety. It complies with both UKCA and CE marking standards, ensuring that it meets all applicable safety, health, and environmental regulations in the UK and EU markets.
By applying our innovative technology to mobile homes and holiday lodges, we can support the safe development of prime plots of land adjacent to bodies of water and in areas of flood risk, thanks to its proven ability to keep people and property safe throughout a flood event. This is particularly important in flood-prone and coastal areas, where the impact on tourism hits business owners hard.
There are approximately 365,000 caravan holiday homes and an additional 100,000 residential park homes in the UK, with around 73,000 holiday caravans and 10,000 park homes at moderate or significant risk of flooding. In the region of 20,000 caravan pitches in the UK are not even being used due to flood risk, according to data from the National Caravan Council.
We’re delighted to be working with tourism businesses in several different areas of the country to help them future-proof their operations against the growing flood risk that we face.
Both new build and retrofit tested versions of our Flood Adaptive Platform are available to suit all mobile home types, including single, twin and bespoke units.

Our technology has also been applied to modular buildings, such as the Hadley FloodSAFE House, which we developed in partnership with Hadley Group.
A low carbon, steel-framed house, which is manufactured off-site, it looks just like a normal house but, because it sits on our Flood Adaptive Platform, it has the ability to keep the contents safe and dry.
Modular build techniques are routinely used in affordable and social housing developments, which makes our technology a hugely attractive prospect for local authorities and housing developers across the UK and beyond.
As well as keeping people and their property safe, our unique products have the potential to reduce the pressure on the emergency services during flood events and drastically reduce the clean-up costs associated with flooding. What’s more, they also offer local authorities and developers huge potential for development in areas of high flood risk, which would previously have been considered off-limits.
We believe that our flood adaptive technology can play an important role in attracting inward investment to areas where greater flood resilience is needed, as well as helping to negate the need for costly, carbon heavy flood mitigation work.
The Flood Adaptive Platform’s potential is limitless; it can be used to protect a vast range of infrastructure across many different sectors, from utilities and energy to commercial and transportation.
