Storm Surge Barriers Market Analysis

Gate Type (Flap Gates, Sector Gates, Vertical Lifting Gates, Inflatable Rubber Gates, Barge Gates, Rotary Segment Gates)

The vertical lifting gates segment in the storm surge barriers market is poised to gather the highest revenue of 41 % in the forecasted timeframe. Advantages include the capacity to hold the gate vertically above the water, which allows for better inspection and maintenance possibilities. Other benefits include less sensitivity to garbage and ice, the ability to hold a difference in water level in both directions and the need for less building space adjacent to the waterway. Unlimited clearance for navigation and a straightforward lifting mechanism and supporting construction are two major benefits of the gate kept underwater. Moreover, since oxygen cannot reach the gate when it is submerged, another benefit is that corrosion is avoided.

System Type (Fixed Barriers, Movable Barriers)

Storm surge barriers market from the moveable barriers segment is set to have notable growth, with a revenue of 60 % over the projection period. This growth of the segment could be influenced by the growing preference for moveable barriers since it allows passage. When water levels rise, movable flood barriers that are situated near river mouths, tidal inlets, and estuaries close either automatically or manually.
