Geo Textiles
Filtration Fabrics That Offer Unmatched Quality
DrainKnit is a sturdy tubular knitted polypropylene geo textile that has been engineered specifically for controlling erosion, containing, and/or retaining sediment in disturbed areas. It is a mesh tube filled with organic filter material that is placed perpendicular to sheet-flow runoff. The DrainKnit, which is oval to round in cross section, provides a three-dimensional filter that retains sediment and other pollutants (e.g., suspended solids, nutrients, and motor oil) while allowing the cleaned water to flow through. The DrainKnit can be used in place of traditional sediment and erosion control tools such as a silt fence or straw bale barrier.
SMALL QUANTITY ORDERS
With Dickson’s centralized Midwest location, you have the opportunity to order smaller quantities of product without losing significant cost benefit. This provides you with much tighter control of inventory management and freight savings.
FITS MULTIPLE PIPE STYLES AND SIZES
DrainKnit is a versatile product that fits all standard sizes of perforated PE and PVC drainage pipe. We can also customize the color pattern of the fabric to meet your specific coding needs.
UV PROTECTED FABRICS
Our black fabrics are infused with materials that provide protection against UV degradation due to exposure to the sun. This is particularly important if your inventory is stored outdoors and exposed to direct sunlight for an extended length of time.
