DuraBag® Sandbags – 5-Year Outdoor Life, EPA-Compliant Gravel Bag

The Longest-Lasting Outdoor Sandbag You Can Buy. The DuraBag® is engineered to thrive where ordinary sandbags fail. With a 10,000-hour (5-year) UV lifespan, remarkable 380 PSI burst strength, and 9 fade-free color options, it’s the best gravel bag for erosion control—long-lasting, affordable, and fully EPA-compliant for SWPPP applications. Made in the USA.

Built for Construction Toughness. Originally created for erosion control and sign ballast, DuraBag® is now used for temporary fencing, pipe leveling, concrete footings, semi-permanent landscaping, shoreline protection, and slope stabilization. Customers routinely report that DuraBags look “like they were filled yesterday” even after extended exposure.

Important Usage Note

The DuraBag® mesh fabric provides unmatched breathability and UV resistance, but mesh can tear if dragged or roughly handled. For best results, set DuraBags in place and leave them for the duration of your project. If you need a long-lasting, tear-resistant bag that tolerates more movement and abrasion, consider our Ace® Sandbags.
