SedimentSTOP
The Sediment STOP Biodegradable Filtration System consists of a 70% straw and 30% coconut-fibre matrix reinforced with 100% biodegradable netting that is rolled from edge to edge to create a highly-effective, temporary, three-dimensional, sediment-filtration structure. Sediment Stop is a unique organic sediment control system designed to prevent fine sediment from leaving construction sites and other disturbed areas. Unlike silt fences, that need to be mechanically dug up and removed after use, Sediment Stop can be left to biodegrade into the landscape.

Applications
Sediment STOP provides highly effective sediment control for a wide range of applications:
• Forest fire rehabilitation
• Bioengineering projects
• Active jobsites—commercial/new home construction
• Highway construction
• Wetland mitigation
• Riparian area protection
• Stream bank restorations
• Industrial sites
• Pipeline revegetation
• Steep slopes
• Edging/perimeter control
By eliminating the need to return to the jobsite to remove the sediment control structure, Sediment STOP saves you time, money, and
headaches.
Sediment STOP is water permeable, so it allows water to pass through while trapping soil particles. It offers significantly greater filtration
capabilities and sediment retention than wattles, straw bales, or silt fence. Sediment STOP can be incorporated with a variety of planting
techniques, such as live planting, live staking, and seed incorporation. The leno-woven net enables jute strands to move independently, and
openings to expand as necessary. This flexibility, combined with its 100% biodegradability, minimizes the risk of accidental wildlife
entrapment.
