Our friendly staff is here to help you get the exact product you need!
Our lightest silt bag uses an 8 ounce nonwoven geotextile fabric. They are best suited for situations and applications with a thinner sediment/water mix. You can use large dewatering bags to dredge the water hazards at public golf courses and other dredging locations. During a small construction project, you can use silt bags to filter and control polluted runoff to prevent unwanted materials from leaving your job site. See: Dewatering Bags Flyer (pdf), you can download and fill out our short dewatering questionnaire and tell us more about your project. This will help us tailor our services to your specific needs and offer you the best options.

If you are looking to remove sludge with particularly thick mixtures, the 10 ounce silt filtration bag is our heavy duty option. These dewatering sediment bags work well for cities that use stormwater detention ponds as part of their Stormwater Pollution Plan or for facilities that use processing ponds. Sludge and sediment build up can become heavy in stormwater retention ponds, requiring a more substantial solution. With silt bags and large dewatering bags you can dredge sludge from canals and other small boat waterways. Learn more about our solutions for stormwater runoff.
