Soil Saver™ and Soil Saver-Fine™

Open weave, pure jute meshes which protect seed and soil on bare surfaces vulnerable to erosion. The fabrics mould easily to the contours; effectively control erosion; create a micro-climate which promotes plant growth; and fully decompose once vegetation has established.

CoirMesh™ and CoirLoop™

Open weave, pure coir (coconut fibre) meshes that offer similar benefits to jute, but are much stronger and more enduring. This makes them ideal for areas where erosion forces are harsh or vegetation slow develop (e.g. waterways, exposed areas and uplands).

Also, heavy duty woven coconut fibre meshes incorporating protruding loop pile designed to dissipate wave energy and promote sedimentation.

CoirMat™

A thick, coconut fibre, erosion control mulch blanket, which provides an effective matrix for seed retention, and is ideally suited to soil filled gabion linings.

CoirFence™

Woven coir fences are used to create temporary reinforcing soil retention cells on steep slopes and to reduce silt loss caused by run-off.

CoirLog and CoirPallet

Dense coconut fibre bio-roll and mattress substrates for water margin erosion protection and vegetation restoration.

GrassMat™

A dense jute pre-seeded erosion control blanket designed to overcome the problem of seed displacement when handled or installed on steep slopes.

More...

MulchMat™

This dense jute fibre blanket provides an effective, environmentally friendly, solution for temporary suppression of competitive weed growth.

More...

Sedimats™

A simple, yet effective, biodegradable matting used to trap disturbed sediment during in-stream construction activities (such as pipe laying or dredging) which may pollute aquatic habitats downstream.

The mats do not impede water flow and are easy to remove once the works are complete. They may also be fixed to the bank to provide stabilisation and a rich seedbed for vegetation restoration.

The unique mats won an IECA award in 1996, and are now used extensively throughout Britain on a variety of environmental sensitive schemes.

CoirWeb™

A new cellular soil confinement system made from high strength coir webbing.
