Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green launch

The wait is over! We’re officially launching the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green, a new addition to our range. Designed with a commitment to performance, sustainability and cost-efficiency, this silt curtain sets a new benchmark for sustainable marine protection. After extensive testing, it’s ready to hit the market and help industries tackle silt control in a way that’s not only effective, but also better for the environment.

This new range offers environmental benefits while maintaining superior performance. So, if you’re looking for a solution that works hard and leaves a lighter footprint, this is it.

What makes the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green different?

The Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green is built for those who care about doing things better: Better for their projects, better for their budgets, and better for the environment. Whether you’re managing dredging, construction or reclamation projects, this silt curtain delivers high performance with minimal environmental impact, embodying our vision for a more sustainable future.

100% containment

Here are 3 key reasons why it stands out:

1. A Greener Choice: It’s not just another silt curtain — it’s the first of its kind worldwide to be completely foam-free. Specifically, it doesn’t use Expanded Polystyrene (EPS). With also up to 80% fewer raw materials and a fully recyclable design at the end of its lifecycle, this silt curtain significantly lowers its carbon footprint.

2. Unmatched Silt Containment: Engineered for 100% containment, this curtain features a gapless panel connection system that ensures no silt passes through gaps between the curtain panels, delivering reliable and consistent performance every time.

3. Faster Assembly and Setup: Thanks to features like Quick-Connect Panels and Rapid Assembly Float Pockets, you can cut down on setup time by up to 70%. That’s less time spent on-site and more time focusing on what matters most — your project.

Why sustainability matters

At Ecocoast, we believe that protecting our environment should never come at the expense of performance or cost-efficiency. That’s why the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green proudly carries our Ecocoast Green Concept tick of approval, ensuring it meets a higher standard for sustainability.

Today, nearly all companies have set environmental targets, driven by both regulatory requirements and growing market expectations. Regulations such as the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and similar frameworks worldwide now require organizations to set, measure and publicly report on their environmental goals. Meeting these targets is no longer optional. It’s essential for compliance, reputation and long-term success.

Choosing the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green means more than just meeting project needs or ticking boxes for compliance. It’s about taking genuine responsibility for the environment and supporting your company’s environmental commitments. This Green product not only helps industries adhere to environmental standards but also actively protects marine ecosystems, directly contributing to your sustainability targets, whether those relate to water quality, biodiversity protection or broader climate goals.
