The founder and owner of Friendly Environment is Denny Hastings. Mr. Hastings is an entrepreneur and owns several businesses in the Murfreesboro and Shelbyville, Tennessee areas. Mr. Hastings recently received the Jerry Anderson Humanitarian Award. He is also a homebuilder in the middle Tennessee area and was responsible for developing the company’s first product, the Erosion Eel. The idea was born out of the constant frustrations of installing and maintaining silt fence at his construction sites.

The Erosion Eel is a self weighted sediment tube filled with recycled tires. The Erosion Eel is backed by independent testing and out performs most other BMPs. The Eel can be used in place of: rock check dams, silt fence, compost socks and many other.

The Gutter Eel is a self weighted curb inlet protection device. Much like the Erosion Eel, it is also filled with recycled tires and the same durable design. The Gutter Eel comes with a manufactured over flow weir so ponding does not occur.

The Floc Box is a mobile dewatering trailer. Using PAM and FlocMat filters, the Floc Box can replace dewatering bags.

FlocMat is jute material that has been impregnated with PAM.

SMARTfence® 36 is a geotextile sediment-control fence that has been structurally enhanced to prevent silt-fence failure due to both hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces.
