Absorbent Marine Boom with Silt Curtain

ABSORBENT MARINE BOOM HYBRID

HS2 Project for Align JV

Our new hybrid marine booms are being used to protect the environment on the Colne Vally river and lakes in Hertfordshire for the HS2 project.

1.8 kilometers of booms have been installed to date. An Align JV Environmental Advisor said: "...we are confident we have the very best environment protection solution in place."

Thames Tideway Dormay Street

Booms were used to protect the river at the Dormay Street site where the Frogmore tunnel was constructed to connect the combined sewer overflows at Dormay Street and King George’s Park to the main tunnel.

A Section Engineer said:

'I can confirm the booms worked well and we're very happy with their performance at Dormay Street.'

Constructing the longest railway bridge in the UK

While piling is underway, our hybrid marine booms with integral silt curtains protect the River Colne.

The Colne Valley Viaduct will be the UK's longest railway bridge. An expert team of ground engineers are sinking almost 300 piles.

Marine Boom with Silt Curtain

The Ultimate Environmental Protection Solution for Waterways

Pro Earth Absorbent Marine Boom Hybrid (with Silt Curtain) was developed specifically to protect waterways from pollution during project delivery.

Manufactured from UV and salt resistant material and filled with ProCleanSorb, the booms are suitable for long-term deployment in rivers and on open water, depending on conditions and usage.

What makes Pro Earth Marine Booms different is that they have a weighted silt curtain attached. As well as stopping silt, the curtain prevents contaminants from flipping underneath the boom, forcing them into the absorbent boom, providing complete protection.
