Flood Risks & Hy-Tex Products That Can Help

09-12-2024

According to The Environment Agency, last year saw over 40% more rainfall than average, causing flooding across the country. 

Many construction, forestry and farming activities result in disturbed or bare ground that is vulnerable to weather erosion. The silt laden run-off, plus site debris and other pollutants, often contaminates surrounding land, rivers, streams, lakes and drains - resulting in significant environmental diffuse pollution and potentially costly fines.

However, due to the on-going nature of such work, it is generally not possible to protect exposed surfaces until the project is complete. So stormwater from such sites represents a major non-point source of diffuse water pollution in the UK.

We offer a range of products that tackle this problem. Especially the market leading Terrastop™ silt fence range, offering unrivalled performance in controlling pollution caused by silt laden construction site stormwater run-off.
