Ecocoast has just launched the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green – an EPS free, fully recyclable solution for dredging and marine construction projects.
The Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green is designed for clients aiming to minimize their environmental footprint without compromising on performance, Ecocoast said.
Engineered for use in both sheltered and open water environments, it leads the way by eliminating Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam from its flotation system. This advancement reduces the use of raw materials by up to 80% and ensures full recyclability at the end of the product’s lifecycle, significantly lowering carbon footprint and reducing landfill waste.
Analysis shows that the Ecobarrier Silt Curtain Green delivers a significant reduction in carbon emissions from its float component.
For a 25-meter-long panel, the Green model’s estimated carbon footprint is just 5.73kg CO₂e – over 95% lower than the Standard (140.94kg CO₂e) and Premium (173.58kg CO₂e) models, the company said.
