Silt Fence

Silt Fencing is generally used as a non-permanent sediment control device on construction sites to prevent run-off into water courses, storm water, public access or other areas that may suffer from sediment damage. Silt fencing is widely used due to its low cost, simple design and effectiveness if installed and maintained correctly. Silt Fence is generally made from woven polypropylene (WPP) material that acts as a filtering fabric to retain sediment as this washes across exposed soil whilst still allowing water to drain through.

Polesy’s Silt Fence is manufactured from high-quality UV stabilised woven polypropylene (WPP) material that meets Australian Standards with woven selvedges to prevent fraying and a 2-year life expectancy. Different widths and roll lengths are available, and Silt Fence can be secured with either hardwood stakes or steel fence posts.
