PolyFlex Flood Depth Indicators & Hazard Markers
Steel-Flex® Surface Mount is a durable, impact resistant and low maintenance solution for flood way delineation. Poly-Flex™ significantly reduces repetitive replacements and can withstand impact making it ideal for flood zones to provide continuous hazard and depth indication to enhance road user safety.

Benefits of using Impact resistant, flexible flood markers and guideposts
Continuous visibility and guidance
- Self-recovering designs stay upright and legible after strikes, maintaining lane edge, and depth guidance.
- Better resilience in seasonal events (flooding, storms).
Reduced maintenance and product lifecycle cost
- Fewer post replacements and less call-out time after impacts.
- Lower spend on traffic control, crews, and parts over the asset’s life.
Improved safety outcomes
- Energy-absorbing, passively safe posts reduce vehicle damage and injury risk compared to rigid alternatives.
- Maintained delineation in flood-prone or low-visibility zones reduces the risk of collisions, or road users leaving the road or causeway.
