Bioengineering is a combination of biological, mechanical, and ecological concepts to control erosion and stabilize soil through the use of vegetation along with construction materials. Planted vegetation controls erosion and serves as good wildlife and fisheries habitat in riparian systems. We stock bioengineering solutions that include jute, coir logs, biodegradable blankets, straw wattles and biodegradable filtration systems.

Coir Logs, Wattles & Mattings

Coir Logs, Wattles & Mattings Coir Logs Properly installed coir rolls (logs) provide initial structural stability for the shoreline by resisting wave action and flow velocity. These coir logs provide excellent substrate for plant growth. Coir logs are constructed of interwoven coconut fibers that are bound together with biodegradable netting. Commercially produced coir logs come…

Jute

Jute Stopping erosion damage naturally can be attained by using jute erosion control matting. This coarse open mesh fabric will keep the soil in place until the plant material takes hold. Jute matting is a great solution when it comes to meeting the challenges of erosion control. It is beneficial in helping to establish vegetation…
