Erosion Control
Unprotected soil is vulnerable to wind, rain, and runoff — leading to sediment loss, water quality violations, and site damage. ECO Constructors offers a range of erosion control solutions tailored to your site's specific needs, including:
-
Vegetative Stabilization — Native plantings and root systems that naturally anchor soil for long-term protection
-
Sediment Controls — Silt fence, inlet protection, and other BMPs to capture sediment before it leaves your site
-
Erosion Blankets & Matting — Protection for bare slopes and banks while vegetation establishes
-
FilterSoxx — Organic mesh tubes that control erosion and filter stormwater as a cleaner alternative to traditional BMPs
-
Seeding — Permanent vegetative cover is one of the most effective long-term erosion control solutions. See our Seeding page for more information.
-
Streambank & Pond Stabilization — Natural and structural methods to protect waterways, shorelines, and surrounding land from erosion
FilterSoxx
FilterSoxx are mesh tubes custom-filled with specialized organic FilterMedia and GrowingMedia — often called "compost socks" or "mulch socks." They use nature's own systems to control erosion and improve stormwater quality, going far beyond what traditional silt fence or straw bales can offer.
-
Custom Installation — Individually fitted and installed on-site to meet your project's specific needs
-
Silt Fence & Straw Bale Alternative — A more effective, eco-friendly replacement for common sediment controls
-
BMP Substitution — Can replace a variety of standard BMPs on construction sites
-
Stormwater Filtration — Filters runoff and reduces pollutant loads leaving your site
-
Contaminant & Weed Reduction — The composting process eliminates pathogens and weed seeds naturally
-
Eco-Friendly — Made from organic media rather than synthetic materials
-
Local Manufacturer — As a local manufacturer, we can supply FilterSoxx directly or handle full installation for you
Streambank & Pond Stabilization
Unprotected streambanks and pond edges are highly vulnerable to erosion, leading to sediment runoff, water quality issues, and structural damage. ECO Constructors provides stabilization solutions that work with the natural environment to protect your waterways and shorelines.
-
Streambank Stabilization — Natural and structural methods to stop erosion and protect surrounding areas
-
Pond Edge Protection — Reinforcement against erosion from water movement, wave action, and runoff
-
ShoreSOX Installation — A natural alternative to hard armor for bank and shoreline protection. See our ShoreSOX page.
-
Vegetative Stabilization — Native plantings to anchor soil and restore natural erosion resistance
-
Erosion Blankets & Matting — Protection for bare soil on slopes and banks during vegetation establishment
-
Custom Site Solutions — Every site is evaluated individually for the most effective, compliant approach
Our Solution Helps You Control Costs
Benefits Over Other Stormwater BMP's
Faster & Cost-Effective Installs
No trenching is necessary with installation, saving you time and money. It can also be utilized in areas that are difficult to install, like frozen ground or across pavement.
Installation is simple and requires a smaller team to install, saving your team valuable resources that can be tasked to different aspects of your project.
Plus, when it comes time to remove the material, SiltSoxx can be cut open on-site to reveal its compost contents and left to benefit the surroundings.
Less Maintenance
From fewer stakes needed with straw wattle to superior rates of performance that require less maintenance due to fence failures, utilizing a SiltSoxx™ system helps keep maintenance costs in check once installed.
And, once it's installed, it typically lasts longer than other systems like silt fence or straw wattles, eliminating the need to manage and/or reinstall.
And, with a fully biodegradable option available, they can be left in place requiring no removal and allowing them to return to nature.
Better Quality
SiltSoxx™ come in a variety of sizes, 12", 8" and 5", all with higher total solids removal efficiency than conventional means.
With a fast flow-through rate, SiltSoxx decrease ponding while increasing sediment removal, resulting in better performance at your site.
Plus, superior quality saves you money by eliminating costly re-install and non-compliance costs.
