Controlling the flow of contaminated water and other dangerous liquids is a serious problem which faces every Fire Brigade today. Erecting sandbag or earth dams is often totally ineffective. Our basic idea has been to use the weight of water itself to make an effective and workable dam, preventing the uncontrolled outflow of liquids. The boom can be used as a large spillage container. The double chambered nature of the boom prevents it from rolling away: the laws of physics are used to great effect! Easily handled by a small staff, quickly installed and effective over every terrain, the ÖKO-TEC Double-tube-boom is superbly conceived. The Double-tube-boom is made from extremely tear and chemical resistant polyethylene. The diameter of the larger tube is 40 cm, the smaller 20 cm.
