Drizit Economy Fence Boom

The Drizit Economy Fence Boom is a cost-effective containment barrier designed for short-term spill response in low-flow rivers, brooks and streams. Its solid buoyancy chambers and chain ballast help maintain a floating barrier in calm, slow-moving water.

Made from heavy-duty UV-stabilised polythene, the boom is lightweight and straightforward to deploy and recover. Velcro joins allow sections to be connected, while the concertina-folding design makes storage practical in vehicles and emergency response trailers.

Product Details

Product Information

The Economy Fence Boom provides a practical option for temporary containment where a compact, readily deployable barrier is needed. It is intended for inland waterways with slow currents rather than demanding open-water conditions.

Solid, sealed buoyancy chambers help the boom remain afloat, and chain ballast helps hold the curtain in position. Its folding design reduces the storage space required between deployments.
