GroSoxx Vegetated Filter Sock
GroSoxx compost socks quickly establish vegetation for Low Impact Development & Green Infrastructure applications.
GroSoxx® is made of DURABLE Filtrexx Mesh netting and is pre-filled with certified, composted GrowingMedia™ to provide a stable and fertile environment for plant growth.
GroSoxx is generally used for LID, green infrastructure, and other stormwater runoff Best Management Practices (BMPs) to stabilize soil and promote vegetation growth. Easily plant GroSoxx after construction is complete, or call for a custom quote for pre-seeded GroSoxx. Used alone or in combination with other Filtrexx technologies and systems, GroSoxx offers a sustainable alternative to civil and landscape engineers, designers, architects and public works professionals. Contact our team and let us collaborate on your next project development.
Why Choose GroSoxx?
GroSoxx is a vegetated filter sock that establishes living plants while it filters — built for green infrastructure and LID applications.
Filters and Grows
Combines sediment and pollutant filtration with a growing medium that establishes vegetation in place.
Built for Green Infrastructure
Designed for LID and post-construction applications where a permanent, living solution is specified.
Stabilizes as It Establishes
Roots knit the sock into the surrounding soil, adding long-term stability to slopes and banks.
No Trenching Required
Places directly on grade, protecting existing soil structure and vegetation during installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
GroSoxx is a vegetated filter sock filled with composted GrowingMedia designed to support rapid vegetation establishment. It is commonly used in Low Impact Development (LID) and green infrastructure stormwater applications.
GroSoxx uses durable mesh netting filled with fertile GrowingMedia that promotes plant growth through the sock. As vegetation establishes, it stabilizes soil, slows runoff, and enhances stormwater infiltration and filtration.
GroSoxx is commonly installed in bioswales, rain gardens, channels, and stormwater filtration systems to manage runoff. It is also used for shoreline stabilization, slope protection, and gabion installations within green infrastructure projects.
GroSoxx supports rapid vegetation establishment, improving soil stability and reducing erosion naturally. The system is flexible, easy to install, and integrates well with other BMPs for long-term stormwater management.
Yes. GroSoxx can be planted after installation or ordered pre-seeded with custom plant mixes. Pre-seeding helps accelerate vegetative cover and soil reinforcement on project sites.
GroSoxx is available in 8-inch and 12-inch diameters and is filled with certified, composted GrowingMedia. The durable mesh construction is designed to support vegetation establishment and performance over multiple seasons.
GroSoxx provides a sustainable, vegetated solution that combines plant growth with effective runoff control. It often outperforms bare soil and many mechanical systems in long-term stability, filtration, and visual appeal.
Yes. GroSoxx is used in channel protection applications to stabilize channel beds and banks under higher flow conditions. The combination of structure and vegetation provides greater erosion resistance than traditional soft armoring alone.
