Coir Blanket Product Details
The coconut coir blanket is made from a natural coconut fiber which is 100% biodegradable. This makes the erosion control mat the perfect solution for environmentally sensitive areas, steep slopes, or cool shady areas that naturally increase seed germination. Coir blankets are similar to straw blankets but are much longer lasting (2 to 5 years) and are made to handle higher flow rates due to the open weave style design.

Coir mats are constructed using the natural material coconut fiber and are designed to biodegrade over time. This process enhances the soil for vegetative growth. Erosion blankets are the perfect solution for environmentally sensitive areas. The coir mat is held together with a netting material that has an open weave design to allow for seeding before or after the mat has been installed. The netting biodegrades with the coconut coir mat for a fully environment friendly product.

Coir Mats Frequently Asked Questions
Coconut coir mats are completely biodegradable and will promote regrowth as they degrade over time. This is a more environmentally friendly option compared to other erosion control products.
Coir mats are easily installed. Place the mat in an area that has been graded so that the mat comes in complete contact with the soil. We recommend that a trench be made at the top and bottom of your slope to backfill after the mat has been placed. Coir mat is installed by unrolling the unit from top to bottom in the direction of the water flow. We recommend a 6 to 8 inch overlap. The erosion control mat is then secured using either stakes or staples. After your mat is securely in place backfill the trench to further anchor your coir mat.
