TrapBag Flood Barriers in Alaska
Flood Protection
TrapBag water barriers offer the strongest protection against water intrusion. Designed as a more effective, affordable solution than sandbags, TrapBag’s innovative design can quickly control and direct water flow away from flood-sensitive areas. With glacial ice dams threatening your property, having flood protection is imperative. Setup is easy, and with a four-foot minimum height and stackable design, you can count on its superior flood protection when fast-rising water threatens your property, project, or infrastructure.

Preserving your shoreline can be simple with TrapBag’s erosion control solutions. Stabilize dune cores or create an erosion barrier strong enough to withstand lapping waves when other methods, like traditional sandbags, fail. More affordable than rip rap and better performing than fencing, TrapBag’s erosion control is tested and proven to be a viable method to preserve your shoreline and beaches.

Installing a TrapBag seawall is a great option to maintain the natural coastline and keep habitats safe. With durable strength capable of withstanding the pounding of ocean waves, TrapBag is both reliable and affordable whereas other methods are costly or prone to failure.
Learn More »Retaining Walls
If your property needs landslide or flood protection, TrapBag retaining walls are an excellent solution due to their durability and design. Whether you need a gravity wall or a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall, TrapBags are designed to function as either, which provides you with a strong barrier that can prevent flooding and stabilize slopes.

Prevent polluted stormwater from intruding onto your property, running back into sewer systems or water supplies, and overwhelming them, with TrapBag. Economical, durable, and rapidly deployable, TrapBag’s unique design is unlike any other flood protection or stormwater management device.
Learn More »Cofferdams
Traditional cofferdams are available at a premium cost, which makes the budget for an underwater project skyrocket. Sometimes, they simply aren’t practical, especially when working in shallow water. When your project needs a dry working area, TrapBag’s cofferdams will keep crews safe and dry with an affordable, easily installed solution. Our cofferdams can take the place of sheet-pile cofferdams, water-filled barriers, or sandbags, which makes it a versatile and reliable option that is easy to install and won’t break the budget.

Fast Deployment
TrapBag is designed to be put in place easily and quickly. Minutes count when conditions can rapidly change, such is the case with unstable winters or melting glacial ice in Alaska. When ice jams break free, which is sometimes unpredictable, it can quickly flood an area. TrapBags can be installed quickly with a few people and the right equipment.
-
Reliable Strength
The strength and durability of TrapBag’s flood protection or erosion control device is what sets it apart from other options. The proprietary interconnected cells and geotextile design are stronger than traditional sandbags, and they can last up to five years in the elements. Especially in Alaska, slow but strong ice heaves can easily penetrate other flood protection measures, which is why having a strong, reliable product is necessary.
-
Efficient Design
Unlike other options, TrapBag is easy to store when not needed, more cost-effective, and requires a fraction of the manpower needed to deploy. TrapBag has revolutionized erosion control and flood protection because of its innovative design that costs less and requires less time and material to put in place.
