Filtrexx Flood Control System

Filtrexx is a proven green technology that can be used in over 100 applications. We use locally made, annually renewable, biobased, recycled compost and other organic products, contained by our mesh containment system to create patented products. This all-natural Filtrexx system is currently use in 8 countries including the US, Canada, New Zealand, United Kingdom and Australia.
Mesh is the containment system we use for most of our applications. The mesh or ‘soxx’ as they are called, are simply knitted, woven, or extruded textiles in various opening sizes, diameters and patterns that achieve performance criteria for the intended function. For instance, our Diversion Soxx focus on holding dense soil media to assist with flood control and diversion of flood waters. Our GardenSoxx hold growing media for flowers and vegetables while our standard FilterSoxx are used for sediment control applications.
The mesh allows us to use the properties of compost and other organic products to harness nature and deliver benefits like superior growing conditions, better filtration, and stabilization.
