Geocoir Organic Geotextile for Erosion Control

The coir geotextile is a strong and durable coir fiber mesh. The open weave design allows for planting of seeds and vegetation, either before or after the mat has been installed, offering strong support to vegetation.
The semi-permanent design, allows the coir geotextile erosion control mat to have a lifespan of approximately four to six years. During this time, the soil itself is gaining in shear strength either by increased densification and/or by consolidation. After this time, the mat will slowly biodegrade, enriching the soil in the area, providing a natural erosion control disposal process.
Coir geotextiles can be installed even on very steep slopes, up to approx.700, while in combination with metallic netting it can be installed even on vertical slopes.
