This increases the field-use-life and performance effectiveness of the geotextile silt curtain.

We offer all the installation components needed for your Type 2 turbidity curtain project, shipped together for convenience. Type 2 silt curtain accessory components include:

• Tow Bridles – Use to help prevent stress tears that can occur when installing or relocating curtain.
• Anchor Kits – These pre-assembled anchoring kits are convenient and save time on site. The key to successful silt screen use is proper anchoring (if you need assistance in determining the required placement of anchors, please contact us.) Kit components are also available separately.
• Floating Marker Lights – Ensure visibility and meet night safety regulations.

Our floating geotextile turbidity curtain prices fit within your budget without sacrificing quality or performance. Robust and reliable, Type 2 Permeable Silt Screens are built to meet the compliance needs of your project. When installed and maintained as directed, they will successfully provide protection from construction-related turbidity by containing suspended debris and sediment until the sediment settles again. As a secondary function, they also trap floating debris for later retrieval. These floating silt screens can provide the results you're looking for.
