Silt Sock

We created the Silt Sock as a sustainable, eco-friendly answer to protect our local waterways.

Protecting whenua (land), supporting whānau (family) 🌱

A big thanks to Colab Construct for choosing our silt socks for their site. Jarryd swung by the nursery this morning to pick up a special sizes order — sorted and ready to go.

Every silt sock on a construction site does two jobs at once: it keeps sediment out of our waterways, protecting the land and water that sustain us all — toitū te whenua, toitū te wai (the land endures, the water endures) — and because we're a social enterprise, every dollar of profit goes straight back into our charitable mahi (work).

Food parcels, community lunches, accommodation for whānau (families) in need, volunteer support — all of it is funded by partnerships like this one.

So when companies like Colab Construct choose us, they're not just ticking an environmental compliance box.

They're helping feed families and strengthen our community right here in Waitaha (Canterbury).

Ngā mihi nui (many thanks), Colab Construct — we appreciate you. 🙌

💛 Silt Sock stepping up to support the community again!

Fiona runs an op shop and food bank serving her community in little River — and like so many on Banks Peninsula, she was hit hard by the recent flooding that inundated the area with silt.

Fiona reached out to us to ask whether our silt socks could help protect the large garage she operates out of. It wasn't a use case we'd tested before, but we weren't about to let that stop us. She took the measurements, we did the maths, and we donated more than enough to cover what she needed. Fiona came out to our Harewood site and picked them up herself and we squeezed a bunch into her little car.

It was an absolute privilege to support another amazing wāhine doing so much good in her community. We pray she never has to use them — but they'll be tucked away and ready if the need arises. 🙏

If you need sediment control solutions, know that every silt sock we sell does more than protect the land — 100% of profits go back into supporting our community. You're not just buying a product, you're being part of something bigger.

Had a call from a local builder last night asking for a few silt socks last night.

No problem! We popped them out for him to pick up after hours.

Too easy.
