Biobrane™ Pipe Socks

Biobrane™ W70 Pipe Socks control pollution caused when pumping dirty water from excavations, and offers an economical alternative to traditional dewatering bags or filtration products.

These easy to use and popular sediment filter bags are ideal for small projects and minor pollution problems to control pollution from sediment and oil sheen in pumped dirty water.

Designed to attach directly to the discharge pipe, they quickly filter water to help prevent unwanted sediment, silt, debris or pollutants leaving the site in run-off.

The socks have been designed to control pollution caused by pumping dirty water from excavations, trenches, lift shafts, bunds and the like, by filtering out sediment from contaminated water down to 81 micron.

Biobrane™ W70 Pipe Socks are uniquely made from 70% recycled wool and 30% from a special plant based biopolymer, providing an environmentally responsible solution by using sustainable materials that are fully compostable and biodegradable at end of use.

Kindly note, our Biobrane™ W70 Pipe Socks have superseded Pro-Tex™ Pipe Socks.
