IT ALL FLOWS DOWNSTREAM

FOG – Trash – Oil – Debris – Silt – Drugs

How Do We Keep Our Waterways Clean?

From storm water runoff’s first flush to flushing drugs into our sewer systems – trash, oil spills, silt, FOG (fats, oils and grease), pharmaceuticals, aquatic weeds and illicit discharges pollute our waterways every day. Elastec develops simple and cost-effective solutions to keep our streams, rivers and oceans protected from surface water contaminants.

Elastec is the largest manufacturer of oil spill response equipment in North America with distribution in 155 countries. Our floating barriers, curtains, booms, skimmers, fire boom, work boats, portable incinerators, vacuum systems, pumps and power units work around the world to keep our waterways clean.
