Economical perimeter fencing and sediment control for construction sites
Slit Film is a woven geotextile with slit films or “tapes”. Construction professionals use this inexpensive geotextile for both soil stabilization and separation at the expense of hydraulic properties. Furthermore, it is resistant to ultraviolet degradation and is non-biodegradable. As a result, it is often attached to T-Posts or U-Posts for perimeter fencing in erosion and sediment control applications. Ferguson Waterworks offers construction professionals and contractors a complete selection of silt fence products such as custom printed silt fences, SmartFence, Super Silt Fence, DOT-Grade Silt Fence, and more.
As your premium geo and stormwater solutions supplier, we partner with you from project design to job site support. For heavier-duty geotextile fabric, consider our selection of high-strength woven geotextiles such as Mirafi® HP-Series and Mirafi® RSi-Series, high-flow woven monofilament geotextiles, lightweight nonwoven geotextiles, and Mirafi® H2Ri for superior moisture management.

What are slit film woven geotextiles?
Slit film geotextiles are woven flat strands of polypropylene. They are manufactured by slitting a plastic sheet. Often, professionals use this geotextile filter fabric as an economical backing material for sediment control. That is because of the fabric’s ability to both remain intact and also retain sediment when installed vertically between posts. In addition, it provides separation and minor stabilization for light-duty load-support applications over soft or weak soils.
What are the benefits of slit film geotextiles?
These woven geotextiles are one of the more basic versions of geosynthetic fabrics. Thus, they offer an economical price point to the geo and stormwater market. Not only do professionals use slit film for separating materials in light-load applications with adequate drainage but also they are non-biodegradable and resistant to commonly encountered mildew, insect, and soil chemicals. Slit film geotextiles’ tenure in the industry has led to the discovery of using the woven fabric in many different applications.
