Organic Erosion Control Blankets - KoirMatTM Blanket
The Natural Choice for Erosion Control Products
KoirMatTM erosion control matting is highly versatile with a wide array of application in bioengineering and erosion control. It offers the best solution to the demand for an environment friendly and economic erosion control product.
Coir is derived from the husk of coconuts. It is composed of 46% lignin, 43% cellulose, 5% water solubles, 3% pectin and 3% ash. The high lignin content makes KoirMatTM naturally resistant to mold and rot, and therefore requires no further chemical treatment.
Coir fiber has the highest durability and tensile strength of all natural fibers. Depending on its applications and exposure, KoirMatTM will last between 4 to 8 years. This extended longevity period will allow enough time to establish adequate vegetation which in turn would control erosion the way nature intended. Once installed, the natural brown color of the yarn makes KoirMatTM aesthetically pleasing.
KoirMatTM is the solution to the demand for an environmentally safe, biodegradable, flexible and cost effective erosion control product.
