Innovative materials

WaveDam uses EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) for its construction. This material offers several advantages:

  • EPDM withstands extreme temperatures and environmental conditions.
  • It adapts to uneven surfaces, ensuring a secure seal.
  • EPDM is resistant to chemicals, acids, and alkalis.
  • The material is 100% recyclable, contributing to environmental conservation.

Patented Dual-Compartment Design

SLAMDAM features a unique dual-compartment design that enhances stability and performance:

  • The two compartments support each other under pressure, preventing collapse.
  • The design withstands high water levels and external forces.
  • The system remains stable and effective, even under extreme conditions.
  • The design is effective for various types of ground surfaces.

Smart Technology Integration

SLAMDAM incorporates advanced technology to improve monitoring and control:

  • Customized software solutions to support the location and estimate the impact.
  • Sensors monitor water levels, pressure, and structural integrity.
  • Data is transmitted to a central system for continuous monitoring.
  • Alerts notify operators of potential issues, enabling quick responses.
