DESCRIPTION
Grow Mat is three-dimensional Non-biodegradable erosion control mat manufactured of polyethylene. It used for slop and ground protection in road building, landscaping and landfill engineering works. Property dimensioned it prevents the sliding and washing out the soil and cover layer while facilitating rapid vegetation growth. Upon heavy rains and water flows, the reinforcing ability of Grow Mat prevents erosion of the otherwise vulnerable vegetation. Once vegetated, Grow Mat reduces runoff velocities and thereby increases infiltration and reduces discharge. Directly next to water courses, Grow Mat protects the banks from the sourcing action of water flow.
