Silt Curtains & Booms | Silt Curtain for Marine Construction & Dredging Get latest price

Heavy-duty floating silt curtains are engineered to contain suspended sediment and control turbidity during in-water works such as marine construction, dredging, piling, and shoreline activities. Suitable for both standard and custom installations across a range of marine environments, these barriers assist in meeting environmental compliance by limiting sediment migration and protecting local waterways.

• Designed for both standard and custom applications to suit specific site and environmental conditions
• Available in draft depths from 1 m to 4 m, with various float and ballast options
• Robust nonwoven skirt material (90 micron) for effective containment
• ASTM standard Z-connector system for secure joining of sections
• Galvanised chain ballast ensures stability during deployment
• Options for short- or long-term installation

• Marine construction - jetty, bridge, marina, and shoreline works
• Dredging operations to contain suspended sediment
• Piling and marine excavation
• Developments and construction projects near waterways
• Environmental and remediation projects

• Freeboard: Distance from waterline to top of float chamber
• Draft: Distance from waterline to bottom of curtain
• Skirt: Material between float and ballast chain pocket
• Ballast: Galvanised chain for stability at curtain base
• Connector: ASTM standard Z-connector system

• Selection of float size, skirt depth, and ballast weight should be based on specific site water conditions
• Considerations include water depth, currents, tidal flows, and bed type (sand, mud, rock)
• Secure anchoring and tensioning are required for effectiveness, especially in tidal or flowing waters
