Why choose agro Sock?
Material
Composition
-
Agro Socks are filled with fibrous plant-based materials made from dried stalks of tall grasses. They are less dense and have a flexible, soft structure.
-
Agro Sock materials decompose faster than Silt Socks as they are softer and more organic. While this limits their lifespan, their decomposition can contribute nutrients to the soil, benefiting long-term soil health.
-
The fibrous nature of these grasses promotes fast water flow while still trapping larger sediment particles. This makes them a great choice for areas where rapid drainage is needed, or for managing coarser sediments.
Water filtration
-
Miscanthus & switchgrass are softer materials which decompose faster than woodchips. This makes them an excellent choice for projects with a shorter lifespan. Their decomposition can also contribute nutrients to the soil, benefiting long-term soil health.
Organic
breakdown
-
Agro Socks are significantly lighter than Silt Socks, making them easier to transport, maneuver and install.
Weight and handling
-
Purpose grown perennial grasses are cultivated specifically for production, making them highly renewable and sustainable. Their growth requires minimal inputs, and they can be cultivated on marginal land, reducing competition with food crops.
