Filter Sock

Features:

• Material: Filter socks are typically made from a mesh or geotextile fabric filled with organic materials like compost or wood chips.
• Sizes: They come in various sizes to meet the specific needs of each project, with common diameters ranging from 5 inches to 24 inches.
• Design: The permeable fabric allows water to flow through while trapping sediment and pollutants inside. The design ensures close contact with the ground, preventing water from flowing underneath.

Benefits:

• Sediment Control: Filter socks effectively trap sediment and reduce soil displacement, improving water quality and minimizing the environmental impact of construction and other land-disturbing activities.
• Environmental Protection: By preventing sediment and pollutants from entering water bodies, filter socks help protect aquatic habitats and water quality.
• Ease of Installation: They are easy to install and can be placed directly on the soil surface without the need for trenching. This makes them suitable for use on rocky, steep, muddy, or tree-rooted areas.
• Cost-Effective: Filter socks are a cost-effective solution for sediment control, reducing labor, time, and equipment costs.
• Versatility: Suitable for use around site perimeters, storm drains, curb inlets, and across slopes, providing essential protection in urban environments and on impervious surfaces.
