The Silt Sock

Protecting our waterways from sediment & silt

Whether you’re constructing in Christchurch or anywhere in Aotearoa, sediment and silt control measures are essential to protect local waterways. Our silt socks are made locally right here in Ōtautahi and designed to prevent construction run-off from polluting the environment.

As a social impact venture, we provide an eco-friendly solution that helps keep our waterways clean while supporting sustainable practices.

Why choose our silt socks?

Robust Design

Our Silt Socks are created with robust woven materials and are filled with multi grade arbour chip to better filter sediment

Our Silt Socks provide proven protection to local waterways and drains by filtering water run off from building and construction sites.

Our Silt Socks are proudly locally made right here in Ōtautahi Christchurch. 

Silt Sock is a social impact enterprise of The Wai-Ora Trust with 100% of our profits going directly into services that help the community. From weekly foodbank and lunches to community gardens, disability and volunteer programmes, your purchase not only positively impacts the environment but also those in need.
