Filtrexx Channel Soxx are a cost effective replacement for expensive Rip Rap along roadsides and highways. This unique combination of Filtrexx FilterSoxx can either be used to line an existing channel or can be used to develop a new channel where none existed before. Not only is runoff controlled from damaging other areas, Filtrexx Channel Soxx also filter along its entirety so water that is sediment laden at the top, is cleaner at the bottom.
This application can also be used in conjunction with Filtrexx Ditch Chexx placed along the length of the channel to further break up the watershed and to filter even more sediment! Also, a Filtrexx Filter Ring is often placed at the outfall to trap any additional contaminants.
Filtrexx Channel Soxx can be seeded at time of application to provide a permanent, vegetated channel. This channel will continue to perform year after year; creating the best long term channel device on the market.
