Mirafi® Silt Fence
Product Description
Mirafi® Silt Fence structures, specially developed fabrics on supporting posts, are designed for efficient control of sediment run-off from construction sites. This sediment, left unchecked, can clog and pollute native waterways and damage natural areas. Controlling the run-off (an increasing environmental concern) is advantageous to owners, contractors and engineers who face the economic costs associated with site sediment loss. Installed correctly in the field, the sedimentation control fabric in silt fence structures functions as a filter and a run-off flow velocity check. Fine-grained sediment is trapped by the fabric while storm water run-off may pass through the fabric at a moderate rate.
