Erosion Mats

These are Coco Earth'sHarvest Erosion Mats which provide an environmentally friendly and efficient method of stabilizing soil and controlling erosion. These finely woven coir fiber twine mats—made from husks of mature paristaltile coconuts—are designed to protect bare and/or new plantings from the detrimental effects of wind and water, as well as the damage caused by birds and animals. Their inherent durability and degradability make them an ideal material for use in ecological restoration, infrastructure protection and landscaping.

Whether used to protect hillsides from erosion, shield water bodies from choke-risk and protect the integrity of slopes, these coir mats function as a physical barrier as well as a growth medium to ensure lasting soil health.

Engineered in Multiple Grades for Versatility

For various site conditions and performance criteria requiremenst, Erosion Mats come in three standard weights:

• 400 GSM – Light duty matting for slight inclines and low impact areas
• 700 GSM – Mid-range mats for generic stabilisation and revegetation requirements
• 900 GSM – Heavy-duty reinforcement, perfect for sloping terrains, high water flow areas and work sites

Those grade variations enable land managers, civil engineers, and environmentalists to select the proper strength of matting for the type of terrain, degree of exposure to water, and method of vegetation. This way, each application gets the optimal amount of protection, coverage and wear.

Biodegradable and Environmentally friendly construction

One of the best features of the Erosion Mats is the fact that they are 100% natural and biodegradable. As the mats break apart over time, they blend with the area, enhancing the soil without leaving behind any dangerous chemicals. Unlike plastic geotextiles or synthetic erosion control blankets, coir matting degrades over time, removing disposal issues, and ing long term maintenance.

With their rough surface they have a very high gripping ability for soil particles; with reduced runoff and increased rooting of the vegetation. With time, the matting merges with the surrounding environment and coexists naturally in a productive environment.

Environmental and Infrastructure Applications

Erosion Mats are versatile and suitable for many restoration and stabilization projects. Common applications include:

• Hillside and slope protection
• Stabilization of a Roadside Cutting
• Support for reforestation and revegetation
• Hydroseeding base layer
• Protection of streams and riversides
• Minimising the Impact of Run-Off from Construction Sites

Landscaping projects for erosion control

This open-weave construction is even better at “pinning” mulch, soil, or seed in place, and more effective than any plant cover you’ve ever tried at holding topsoil and degradation while permitting water and sunlight to reach your plants – the two elements critical to growth.

Lightweight but Strong and Durable – Easy to Install

While their heavy-duty composition is extremely durable, the Erosion Mats are also lightweight, allowing for easy installation by hand throughout remote or challenging-to-reach locations. They can be laid down, or pinned and staked in place with biodegradable stakes or alternative anchoring method, depending on the specific system. With easy installation, after install, mats offer instant erosion control while natural vegetation takes root!

If required in large quantities size and coverage are also customizable. The inherent robustness of coir mats binds them together to prevent shedding during seasonal rainfall, surface run-offs.

Final Words

The Perfect Solution for Soil Erosion! The Erosion Mats by Coco Earth Harvest is a combination of functionality, sustainability, and ease all in one tool for soil erosion. With a range of weights (light, standard, and heavy), and applications (including steep, recent cuts and revegetation, and soil stabilization) we offer tried and tested erosion control with the potential for vegetation to grow and restore the environment. Whether you’re running a construction site, restoring a Brownfield, or protecting a natural stream bank, our coir mats offer a long-term, natural solution that works with the environment and encourages healing.
