[Dong-A Ilbo] Rainy season, recommended installation of water barriers in underground parking lots… ‘Morris flood control barrier’ draws attentionRainy season, recommended installation of water barriers in underground parking lots… ‘Morris mobile water barrier’ draws attentionAs the rainy season approaches, voices are growing louder that water barriers should be installed in underground parking lots with low elevations, and the mobile water barrier product of the MORRIS N CO brand is drawing attention.This product is a domestically manufactured water barrier with a patent, and can be installed and dismantled quickly and easily without damaging the building or construction. Existing fixed water barriers are known to require construction during installation and are more expensive than mobile plant barriers. On the other hand, MORRIS N CO has manufactured a lightweight mobile water barrier that can be quickly installed and extended, and can be stored in layers when not in use, so it also has high space utilization. The product types are composed of curved, straight, and curved types to facilitate determination of the direction of water flow, and the left and right adjustment plates that seamlessly finish the curbs on the left and right sides of underground parking lots are patented products.A MORRIS N CO official explained, "The reason our product can reliably prevent flooding without being pushed around by squalls or heavy rain is because it is manufactured with an L-Type fluid dynamic structure and the waterproof sponge and waterproof rubber are in close contact with the ground."He continued, "The biggest advantage of our products is their reasonable prices. They are also made of high-quality ABS material with excellent impact resistance and weigh only 4.4 kg each, making them easy to move. They are being supplied to many places where there is a risk of flood damage, such as government offices, schools, and apartment complexes across the country, including Seoul, Incheon, and Busan." He added, "During this rainy season, please install flood barriers in buildings with low elevations to minimize flood damage and prevent casualties."2024.07.11 Choi Yong-seok, Donga.com reporter duck8@donga.com
[E2News] MORRIS N CO participates in the 2024 Building Maintenance Industry Special Exhibition, prevents flood damage during the rainy season with a Morris flood control barrierMORRIS N CO will participate in the 2024 Building Maintenance Industry Special Exhibition held at COEX from July 31 to August 3. This event will be held concurrently with Korea Build Week, and pre-registration is available on the website until July 30. Every year, flood damage in low-lying areas and underground parking lots continues due to heavy rain during the rainy season. Existing fixed water barriers and sandbags are heavy and take a long time to install, making them unsuitable for disaster situations. This is why flood damage occurs repeatedly every summer.MORRIS N CO's flood control barrier can be quickly assembled by one person in just a few minutes, allowing for effective response to heavy rain situations in a short period of time. It can completely block water even in the curb area of the building's underground parking lot, making it an essential disaster prevention and disaster product for all buildings. Currently, government offices and public institutions are mainly installing fixed water barriers as a flood prevention support project, but the installation method is difficult and maintenance is difficult, so the number of applications for the support project is low. In addition, many places are concerned about the decrease in housing values because they are known to be frequently flooded when fixed water barriers are installed.To solve these problems, MORRIS N CO developed a movable water barrier that can be used in all buildings around the world after several years of research. It comes in three types: straight, curved, and curved, and can divert or block water according to the terrain. It also has left and right end plates, so it can be installed regardless of the width of the underground parking lot. In particular, the wings attached to the left and right end plates can be used on the curbs of underground parking lots, and are receiving explosive interest from public institutions and commercial buildings.MORRIS N CO's flood control barrier is easy to assemble and disassemble, and can be stored in an 'L' shape, taking up less space. It is economical as the installation cost is only about 10% of that of a fixed water barrier.Morris flood control barrier is not only straight but also have internal bends (30°) and external bends (30°), which can be used as water tanks in the event of an electric vehicle fire. If a fire breaks out while charging an electric vehicle in an underground parking lot, it is very difficult to extinguish and the damage is great. If internal bends and linear products are assembled to make a rounded square water tank, electric vehicles that burn for a long time in the event of a fire can be immersed in water and extinguished in a short period of time. In addition, if internal bends and external bends are used to surround manhole covers in heavy rain, backflow can be prevented.Morris flood control barrier is a 100% domestically manufactured and patented product, and has been supplied in large quantities to domestic government offices, public enterprises, and E-Marts from last year to July of this year, and its quality and effectiveness have been recognized. To date, more than 10,000 units have been sold in Korea alone, recording the highest sales of any mobile water barrier ever. In recognition of its quality and contribution to safety, it received the Safety Contribution Award at the Korea Market Expo in April of this year.Morris flood control barrier can be installed in any underground parking lot, so it can be used not only in Korea but also anywhere in the world where flood damage is high. The curb-specific water barrier is a patented product that can be used regardless of the curb height, and is gaining attention as an effective product that can reduce damage to life and property these days when flood damage is increasing due to heavy rain caused by climate change. 2024.07.24 E2News (http://www.e2news.com)
Korea Economic Daily [24.07]Recommendation for installation of water barriers in underground parking lots in preparation for rainy season… Patented ''Morris flood control Barrier'' draws attention.As the rainy season approaches, voices are growing louder that water barriers should be installed in underground parking lots with low elevations to prevent property damage and casualties caused by rain, and MORRIS N CO's mobile water barrier product is gaining attention. The product is a patented domestic water barrier that can be installed and dismantled quickly and easily without damaging the building or causing construction.Existing fixed water barriers are accompanied by damage and construction during installation, and are more expensive than mobile water barriers. On the other hand, MORRIS N CO has manufactured lightweight mobile water barriers that can be quickly installed and extended, and can be stored by stacking them when not in use, which increases space utilization. The product types are composed of curved, straight, and curved types to facilitate determination of the direction of water flow, and the left-right adjustment plate that seamlessly closes the left and right curbs of underground parking lots, which existing fixed water barriers and other companies' mobile water barriers could not solve, is a patented product.MORRIS N CO explained that the reason why its products can stably prevent flooding without being pushed around by squalls or heavy rain is because they are manufactured with an L-Type fluid dynamic structure and the waterproof sponge and waterproof rubber are in close contact with the ground. They also added that they are made of high-quality ABS material with a low price and good impact resistance, and are lightweight at 4.4 kg per unit, making them easy to move.A company official said, “Our products are being supplied to many places where there is a risk of flood damage, such as government offices, schools, and apartment complexes across the country, including Seoul, Incheon, and Busan. We have also supplied our products to various large corporations, including E-Mart, Korea Racing Authority, Everland, Shinsegae, Uniqlo, and Starbucks.” He added, “In order to minimize flood damage and completely prevent casualties during this rainy season, we urge low-rise buildings to install flood barriers.”2024.07.12Hankyung.com Newsroom open@hankyung.com
