Envirofelt Natural fibre erosion control mats
TenCate Polyfelt® Envirofelt offers a range of erosion control mats for surface erosion protection. Envirofelt CF is a 100% biodegradable mat made from natural fibres which stimulates grass and vegetation growth to prevent erosion of topsoil and enhance the stability of slopes. Envirofelt CTRM is a natural fibre mat reinforced with polypropylene mesh to provide better reinforcement to steep slopes whilst facilitating grass and vegetation growth. The mats support the development of natural vegetation from its root development phase until it establishes a permanent erosion control function.
Benefits of Envirofelt erosion control mats:
- Environmentally friendly solution which supports vegetation growth
- Longer lifespan than other products made from natural fibres and easy to install
- Degradation of natural fibres provides nutrients to the plants
- Water storage capacity of natural fibre reduces the danger of drying out the soil
