Description
Coir Mesh Matting is an ideal material to control and prevent erosion whilst establishing new growth. Made from coconut husk fibre this product promotes the growth of new vegetation by retaining moisture and preventing the topsoil from drying and eroding. Coir Mesh Matting is a more robust material than jute and has added strength and durability. The product works by protecting slopes and allowing natural vegetation to establish and grow. Coir is a natural eco friendly fibre that biodegrades in the surrounding landscape over time. Life expectancy is dependant on site conditions and the amount of run off being exposed to the matting.
