  • Silt fence flat pack and production method
    Patent number: 6824332
    Abstract: A method for packaging conventional silt fencing and a product produced by the method. Silt fabric is attached to a number of evenly spaced stakes. The stakes are then bunched together so that the silt fabric hangs between the stakes in descending loops. The bunching is continued until all the stakes lie close together in one plane. The loops of silt fabric are then wrapped tightly around the stakes. Securing bands are then placed around the assembly to create a flat pack.
