When it comes to managing stormwater runoff on construction sites, effective sediment control is non-negotiable. Whether you need inlet protection, perimeter stabilization, or check dams for ditches and swales, RockSoxx offers a durable, reusable, and versatile solution that outperforms traditional methods like straw bales, and is easier to install than silt fence. . Designed with superior strength, flexibility, and ease of installation, RockSoxx helps contractors keep projects compliant, efficient, and on schedule—without unnecessary hassle.
RockSoxx units slow water flow and trap sediment using natural filtration, making them perfect for a range of sediment control BMPs:
- Check Dams: Placed across channels or swales, RockSoxx slows stormwater runoff, allowing sediment to settle before it leaves the site.
- Inlet Protection: Creates a sturdy barrier around storm drains, filtering sediment and debris to prevent clogs and maintain water quality.
- Perimeter Control: Establishes sediment-trapping boundaries along the edges of your site, keeping you compliant and preventing sediment from washing offsite.
Each RockSoxx unit contains a blend of limestone gravel and composted hardwood chips, which captures suspended solids from runoff. The UV-resistant netting ensures these units stand up to long-term exposure and heavy flows, unlike traditional sediment control materials that degrade quickly and require frequent replacement.

Key Benefits of RockSoxx for Sediment Control
1. No Stakes or Trenching Required: Say goodbye to complicated installations. RockSoxx eliminates the need for stakes, anchors, or trenching, making installation fast, safe, and cost-effective. Simply place the units where needed, and their weighted design keeps them securely in place—even in high-flow conditions. This saves time and labor, helping your team stay on schedule.
2. Durable and Reusable Construction: Construction sites are demanding, and your BMPs need to be tough enough to keep up. RockSoxx is built to last with high-strength netting and double hog rings that withstand repeated runoff events and vehicle traffic. These rugged units can be moved and reused across multiple projects, cutting material costs and reducing waste without sacrificing performance.
3. High Hydraulic Flow to Prevent Ponding: Protecting waterways from sediment runoff is a top priority—and RockSoxx makes it easy. Designed for high-flow areas, these units allow water to move freely while filtering sediment, preventing ponding that can lead to erosion and delays. Whether you’re dealing with heavy rainfall or fast-moving runoff, RockSoxx keeps sediment where it belongs—on-site—and protects the environment while keeping your project on track.
4. Modular Design for Flexible Installation: Every project is unique, and your sediment control solution needs to adapt to changing conditions. RockSoxx units can be combined and configured to fit any channel width, slope, or perimeter, offering on-the-fly flexibility. Use them for check dams, ditch checks,inlet protection, or perimeter control—and reconfigure them as needed without hassle.
Easy Installation and Minimal Maintenance
RockSoxx units are lightweight but sturdy, making them easy to handle while still heavy enough to stay in place during severe weather. Each unit features 6-inch pig tails for secure handling, and the double hog ring closure ensures the fill stays intact. With no trenching or anchors required, installation is quick, and maintenance is minimal—allowing your team to focus on getting the job done.
Because RockSoxx is reusable, it offers long-term value by reducing the need for replacements. Fewer disruptions mean lower costs and more time for your crew to focus on what matters most—completing the project on time and under budget.
