The 700 gram Coir Mat is a natural, biodegradable erosion control blanket made from strong coir fibers—harvested from the outer husk of coconuts. Designed for both temporary and long-term stabilization, this matting solution provides excellent soil retention and sediment filtration while also supporting vegetative growth. It’s a preferred solution for shoreline restoration, slope protection, and sediment trapping in sensitive waterway areas.
Each 700g mat is woven from durable coir yarns, offering functional longevity of over three years in most climates. These mats are easy to transport, especially when palletized, and can be quickly deployed by professional crews for rapid shoreline stabilization or check dam construction. Their coarse texture and open weave make them ideal for trapping sediment and slowing water flow.
700 gram Coir Mats are often deployed in areas prone to erosion due to water flow or slope angle. Their structure allows water to filter through while trapping soil and debris. These mats are often used in natural restoration projects including pond edges, coastal areas, and stormwater swales. Coir is especially effective in environments where new vegetation is being introduced, as it shields roots from being washed away during the early growth phase.
Unlike synthetic erosion mats, coir biodegrades naturally over time, enriching the soil as it breaks down. This makes it a highly sustainable choice, particularly for ecologically sensitive zones or areas undergoing natural habitat restoration. The matting also helps maintain slope integrity until the vegetation becomes self-sustaining.
In early spring, a municipal team in the Midwest was tasked with restoring the shoreline of a lake that had suffered from heavy erosion over several years. The team selected 700 gram Coir Mats as the primary erosion control medium, in part due to their eco-friendliness and suitability for planting native species.
The shoreline was first cleared of invasive plants, and soil was reshaped to reduce slope angles. Coir mats were then installed and secured using biodegradable stakes. Native grasses and wildflowers were planted through the open weave. Within three months, vegetation began to root through the matting, anchoring the soil in place. After one full growing season, the area saw complete vegetation coverage and no visible erosion during a heavy rainfall event.
The success of this project demonstrates the versatility and effectiveness of coir-based erosion control solutions. Not only did the 700 gram Coir Mat protect the shoreline during heavy runoff, but it also supported native habitat restoration and improved the site’s overall aesthetics.
If you're managing erosion on slopes, streambanks, or any areas where sediment control and vegetation are priorities, the 700 gram Coir Mat offers a durable and sustainable solution. Its biodegradable structure, long-term performance, and versatility across a variety of terrain types make it a go-to product for landscape professionals, municipalities, and restoration crews alike.
