Founded in 2000, roughco develops, manufactures, and sells highly-functional erosion control products to industries that require protection from silt and containment runoff. Roughco is changing the way people think about erosion control products by introducing them to simple products that work better than what is on the market. Erosion control products by roughco are designed to provide contractors, utility agencies, and business owners with a convenient and effective means of protecting the streams and rivers from silt, debris and pollutants. As a result of increasing emphasis and requirements associated with water quality management, the demand for storm water and erosion control management has grown dramatically over the past several years. Social and political dynamics would suggest that the emphasis on water quality risk management and control will continue to grow over the years to come. Roughco has developed an array of erosion control products that are already finding success in the marketplace. Every roughco product has gone through detailed planning and has been tailored to meet the needs of a specific market segment. Initial market feedback has been resoundingly positive and sales through strategic channels have grown rapidly.
