As burlap or woven/knitted polypropylene bags can be filled with sand or gravel and are an inexpensive gravel bag solution. However, the drawbacks are that they are short life-span and break easily; a vehicle impact can cause the sharp edges of the gravel to tear through, or the seams to fail, causing hazards and the added expense of maintenance and replacement. During the time when they are broken, the construction site may be out of compliance with local and federal regulations, potentially subjecting the construction site to heavy environmental fines.
Monofilament bags are heavy duty sandbags that can last up to three years under the sun. These structurally durable bags will not rupture even if they are driven over by cars. Therefore, they are ideal for jobs that last for years; and also can be re-used from jobs to jobs.
Monofilament bags are manufactured from high-density polyethylene materials in which each strand is a single filament. The non-deformable filaments are woven in a specific pattern and fusion welded for extra strength and durability.
