Last year alone, hail, heavy rainfall-related flooding and storms in Austria are estimated to have caused damage totalling around one billion euros. This destructive force of nature has now been recognised by the population, as a study shows (see ORF report).

Our experts from the EPZ – Natural Disaster Prevention Centre show you specific solutions to be prepared in the event of a natural hazard and prevent unwanted surprises:
