Wire-backed Silt Fence
Reinforced Sediment Barrier
Wire-backed silt fence offers long-lasting sediment control. Due to its robust structure, it handles higher volumes of runoff and traps more sediment and debris. A silt fence with wire backing is woven with polypropylene material and is non-biodegradable. This engineered geotextile resists degradation due to ultraviolet exposure. Our wire-backed silt fence resists commonly encountered soil chemicals, mildew, and insects. Polypropylene is stable within a pH range of 2 to 13, making it one of the most stable polymers available for geotextiles today.
If you’re looking for heavy-duty fencing in place of chainlink-backed silt fence, check out our chainlink alternative, SMARTfence.
Printed silt fence is also available for customers wanting to imprint logos and business information on the fabric.
