Ballistic and flood protection provided via a new sandbag system, by Prepared Marketing:

Prepared Marketing, LLC, located in Anchorage, Alaska, helped debut a brand new product at the trade show called "Ballistic Beaver Bags." I visited with so many folks at the trade show that I'm not sure if I had the opportunity to meet you personally there but I want to follow up and answer any questions you might still have.

The revolutionary new Ballistic Beaver Bags are a quantum leap improvement over traditional sand bags. Ballistic Beaver Bags have a unique and patented interlocking, self-sealing and self-reinforcing nature that are 25 to 50 times more effective than traditional sand bags and they are guaranteed for up to 5 years...unlike sand bags that start to deteriorate after 60 days.

One of the most telling statics for comparison of Ballistic Beaver Bags virus traditional sand bags is 3,000 Ballistic Beaver Bags can build a wall 5' tall, 3' wide and 600' long. There has never before been such a viable means of creating a stable and sturdy dam capable of withstanding the relentless pressure of rising flood waters. It takes over 100,000 traditional sand bags to build a similar wall and it starts to deteriorate in 60 days.
