MDB-1 Military Defensive Barrier

Brief Introduction
The HESLY Military Defensive Barriers unit is a multi-cellular barrier system manufactured from welded Hot-dipped galvanised steel wire mesh and joined with vertical, helical-coil joints. The units are lined with a heavy-duty non-woven polypropylene geotextile. When joined and filled, the system can be used to create barriers of exceptional strength and structural integrity.

All standard MDB products are pre-assembled and delivered palletized with joining pins, to enable the connection of individual units, which can then be filled with available material using minimal manpower and commonly available equipment.
Protection is afforded by the fill material of the structure as a consequence of its mass and physical properties, allied with the proven dynamic properties of Concertainer units.

About the newest Recoverable Defensive Barriers

The recyclable Defensive Barriers provides the same high-specification welded mesh and geotextile as standard HMIL units, but the new recoverable feature means that individual cells can be opened by removing just one pin, allowing the fill material to be released from the unit.

Recoverable MDB units are deployed in exactly the same way as the standard MDB barrier products. Once the mission is over, efficient recovery for disposal can begin. To recover the units for disposal simply open the cell by removing the pin, this allows the fill material to flow freely from the cell. The units can then be recovered fully intact and flat packed for transportation for recycling or disposal, providing substantial reduction in logistical and environmental impact.

How to assemble a Defensive Barrier Wall ? 

Assembling the Defensive Barrier units entails unfolding it and (if available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand, dirt or gravel. The placement of the barrier is generally very similar to the placement of a sandbag barrier or earth berm except that room must generally be allowed for the equipment used to fill the barrier. The main advantage of HeslyBarrier, strongly contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters, is the quick and easy setup. Previously, people had to fill sandbags, a slow undertaking, with one worker filling about 20 sandbags per hour. Workers using HeslyBarrier and a front end loader can do ten times the work of those using sandbags.
