GeoRidge®
GeoRidge® is a permeable ditch berm designed for erosion and sediment control. GeoRidge® is constructed of a durable UV stabilized HDPE and manufactured using a fully automated process to ensure the highest quality and consistency.
GeoRidge® has proven effective for erosion and sediment control. By acting as a dissipater, GeoRidge® reduces flow velocities, and provides a smoother, less damaging release of water minimizing the problem of downstream sediment. Compared to straw bales and other devices, GeoRidge® consistently outperforms, delivering superior results.
Maximizing Sediment Control With GeoRidge®
To maximize GeoRidge® sediment control performance, it is recommended that erosion control blankets be used in conjunction with GeoRidge®. Erosion control blankets prevent undermining of the berms and encourage the earliest possible vegetation growth. This combination is a widely accepted practice and has been used on many different erosion and sediment control projects throughout North America.
