What are floating silt curtains?
Floating silt curtains are designed to control and manage sediment flow within water.In brief, floating silt curtains consist of a top flotation pocket using an environmentally safe and 100% recyclable closed cell foam. In addition to foam buoyancy we can manufacture our pvc range of silt curtains to be air filled.
Definition of a SILT CURTIN. A temporary sediment barrier installed parallel to the bank of a stream or lake. Used to contain and manage the sediment produced by civil construction operations in close proximity to streams and lakes.
SILT CURTINS create a flexible, water permeable barrier that extends downwards in the body of water, where it is typically anchored or weighted to prevent the silt curtain from moving.
Silt Curtins create a limited area for the silt to settle, allowing most areas to remain unaffected by silt.
