Bio-Socks

Silt Sock

Silt sock are a three-dimensional tubular sediment control and storm water runoff filtration device. Silt socks trap sediment and soluble pollutants by filtering runoff water as it passes through the matrix of the Silt sock and by allowing water to temporarily pond behind it. They are also used to reduce runoff flow velocities on sloped surfaces.

Silt sock are to be installed down slope of any disturbed area requiring erosion and sediment control and/ or filtration of soluble pollutants from runoff. Silt sock are effective when installed perpendicular to sheet or low concentrated flow, and in areas that silt fence is normally considered appropriate.

Channel Sock

The Channel Sock’s soft armoring system is designed to stabilize and prevent erosion of channel beds and banks. It is for storm water conveyance and concentrated flow situations. The Channel Sock technology provides structural protection, erosion control, vegetation growth and vegetation reinforcement in the same system. The Channel Sock’s weight and anchoring system can withstand storm runoff velocities and hydraulic shear stresses similar to traditional soft armoring devices.

Compost Blanket

Compost Blankets are a slope stabilization, erosion control and vegetation establishment practice used on hill slopes to stabilize bare, disturbed or eroded soils on and around construction activities. They are used for temporary and permanent slope erosion control and vegetation establishment. Compost Blankets are typically used after final grading for temporary or permanent seeding applications. Custom seed mixes can be added and applied directly to the slope. Non-seeded applications shall be considered a temporary form of erosion control.

Edge Saver

The Edge Saver vegetated soft armouring system is designed to stabilise banks and prevent erosion of waterway and shoreline banks. The Edge Saver system is composed of a heavy duty tubular mesh netting matrix used to contain and stabilize growing media and vegetation. The Edge Saver technology provides structural protection, erosion control, vegetation growth and vegetation reinforcement in one system. The Edge Saver weight and anchoring system can withstand storm runoff velocities and hydraulic shear stresses similar to traditional soft armoring devices while the injected growth media ensure established and sustainability of both seed and live stake plantings

Filter Cell

The Filter Cell filtration system is a temporary or permanent water or storm water filtration system used to remove sediment and/or soluble pollutants from water or storm water. This land based system uses media and vegetation to remove pollutants from water and storm water before being discharged into collection ponds, constructed wetlands, infiltration basins, fields or receiving waters.

Inlet Sock

Inlet Socks are a three-dimensional tubular sediment control and storm water runoff filtration device. Inlet Sock trap sediment and soluble pollutants by filtering runoff waste as it passes through the matrix of the Inlet Sock and by allowing water to temporarily pond behind the Inlet Sock.

Living Wall

The Living Wall system that allows for the stabilization of eroded or damaged slopes while creating attractive vegetated landscapes without the use of 'hard' materials such as concrete and steel. Through the use of Filter Sock, the Living Wall system provides superior retention and erosion protection while providing an optimum environment for vegetation establishment.

DitchChexx

DitchChexx are a three-dimensional tubular check dam device used in storm water drainage ditches and small channels on or near land disturbing activities. They are used to:

slow concentrated directional flow velocity of storm runoff
reduce gully erosion in ditch bottoms
remove sediment and soluble pollutants present in storm water runoff

DitchChexx reduce erosion by slowing runoff velocity and dissipating concentrated storm runoff. They trap sediment and soluble pollutants primarily by filtering storm water as it passes through the matrix of the DitchChexx and secondarily by allowing water to temporarily pond behind the DitchChexx.

Filter Ring

Filter Rings are a three-dimensional tubular solid separation and water pollutant filtration device. They are used for temporary, passive filtration of sediment-laden effluent and point sources of contaminated water. Filter Rings can be used as a pre-treatment filtration system to separate solids or reduce solids content of contaminated water. Filter Rings are easy to customise for size, shape, quantity of contaminated effluent and target pollutant removal.

Concrete Sock

We have reintroduced a range of low cost treatment socks for concrete waste. The socks are a modification of the bio-sock system that is used to treat and filter sediment laden water. The addition of a reagent in the socks means that the composted filter media not only picks up the cement fines in the waste water but also now adjusts the pH to around a neutral level. The sock based system can come in varying lengths and can be used in a curb or placed in a circle so a concrete truck could drop its wash water into it to treat it. The system is versatile and can be used across most concrete operations including exposed aggregate, concrete cutting, piling and any other operation dealing with concrete.
