Flooding is a big problem in the UK. And with the Met Office projecting that the UK will experience more extreme weather events, including more intense rainfall in the future, the risk of flooding is growing. Flash flooding from surface water is the greatest risk of flooding in the UK. It’s not just businesses situated in coastal or riverside areas at risk. ⚠️15% of UK commercial buildings have a significant flood risk. SMEs make up 99% of the private section in the UK. Sadly, if they suffer a catastrophic flood, 40% of SMEs never reopen for business. Whilst steps are being taken at a national level to improve our flood resilience, businesses need to take matters into their own hands to ensure they are protected. Darcy Spillcare offers a range of flood protection products to protect your premises, stock, and livelihood. 🔎Search ‘flood protection’ on our website.

⚠️Drains are critical to site environmental compliance. Which is why it’s so important to regularly inspect and test drains to prevent blockages, flooding, and pollution. Aquasentry provides a complete drainage service from cleansing to CCTV inspections and carrying out any necessary remedial repairs. Aquasentry drainage services meet the emerging licence permit needs of COMAH and EPR regulated sites based on CIRIA C736. Get in touch today to discuss your requirements.
