Application and typical uses of the product

The matting is a natural alternative to erosion control sheeting. It can be applied to at surface. The Erosamat Type 1 & 1A consists of a dense mesh of jute fibres that absorb the impact of rain bombardment and reduces water run-off velocity. The mat protects soil until the seeds have germinated and a root system is established. Thereafter the Erosamat slowly biodegrades to form nutrients and to improve soil quality
