Terrastop Premium Silt Fence 100m
£280.00
Description
Terrastop Premium is a special, high quality, permeable, technical filter fabric for stormwater surface runoff pollution management.
Terrastop can be installed as an entrenched vertical entrapment fence, and is designed to intercept and detain stormwater run-off, trapping harmful silt through settlement and filtration before it leaves the site.
The benefits of the silt fence are increasingly becoming recognised in Britain: The Environment Agency/SEPA Pollution Prevention Guidelines (PPG5) now recommend the use of silt fences to reduce silt transport from exposed ground and stock piles; and research at The James Hutton Institute, using Terrastop silt fencing, demonstrated that even after post-harvest contour grubbing of potato fields an estimated 80 tonnes of soil containing 60-70 kg phosphate-P contaminants was trapped from a 17ha field [Dr Andy Vinten].
