Burlap sandbags for sturdy and reliable flood stopping power.

Burlap Sandbags

Burlap sandbags have been used as a second defense for a long period of time in the construction industry (Burlap sandbags handle a heavy flow of water and filtrate particle sizes as small as coarse to medium silt .05 to .02 mm in size, depending on what material is put in the burlap sandbags). Bags come with burlap string to tie off. They are available in a bale of 1000 bags.

Certificate of Compliance & Biodegradable (Burlap):

As a supplier of burlap, we certify that the material supplied with meet or exceed the following physical specifications also meets the requirements stated on section 20-2 materials. These burlap bags are made of jute fiber which is naturally grown. Sandbags are 100% natural because our burlap is composed of jute fabric. This makes them naturally more flexible than synthetic versions, which have been known to shred under pressure. A typical burlap sandbag has the capacity to hold up to 50 pounds of sand. However, it’s ideal to fill the bag with 35 to 40 pounds of sand to guarantee there are no gaps through which the water can pass. A standard sandbag is 14″ x 26″ or 18″ x 30″. If you overfill the bag, the sand won’t be able to adjust since there’s nowhere for it to go. Water will be able to flow through multiple large gaps created because of this. Filling it most of the way will allow you to create a virtually water-tight and sealed sandbag barricade.
