Improved flood barrier
The present invention relates to an inflatable flood prevention and defense barrier made of water impermeable material e.g. polyvinylchloride. The barrier has water impermeable base wall 2, at least one substantially flexible water impermeable barrier wall 3 extending from the base wall and water impermeable end walls 6. The barrier further comprises at least one inlet 7 and at least one partial baffle 9 within the reservoir, wherein the baffle extends only partially through the reservoir resulting in a plurality of discrete or semi-partitioned fluid chambers within the reservoir. Later embodiments relate to a flood prevention and defense kit comprising a plurality of said barriers and a method of making said flood barrier.
