Erosion Control

Grassroots is an erosion control matting designed to protect underlying soil in steep slopes and channels from moderate to high velocity water flows, rain splash and other erosive conditions, while allowing seeds to germinate successfully and grow through the matting providing permanent vegetative reinforcement. Grassroots is made in Australia by Geofabrics from heavy synthetic UV stabilised fibres

Maccaferri Reno Mattresses, also known as rock mattresses, are thin, flexible rectangular mesh cages made from double twisted woven wire mesh. The cages are divided into cells and filled with rock to limit movement during high-flow conditions. Because of their flexibility, Maccaferri Reno Mattresses are used mainly for hydraulic applications such as weirs, and for scour protection along riverbanks

The ELCOROCK system consists of sand-filled geotextile containers built to form a stabilising, defensive barrier against coastal erosion. The geotextile containers are made from Texcel, a durable staple fibre geotextile. It’s a versatile system ranging from hand-filled 40kg containers to hydraulically-filled 300 tonne mega-sand containers and tubes. FUNCTION The ELCOROCK shoreline protection system has been proven through over

Maccaferri Gabions are rectangular woven wire mesh baskets filled with rock to create flexible, permeable structures such as retaining walls for architectural, mining, industrial and road projects. They are also used for erosion protection, weirs and bank stabilisation and to create architectural and design features. Their strength comes from a double twisted hexagonal mesh of steel wire,

Maccaferri Terramesh and is a versatile, modular system for reinforced slope systems and mechanically stabilised earth walls that can be a more cost effective solution than the mass gravity Gabion wall because of the speed of installation and reduced rock fill requirements. For mechanically stabilised earth slopes and embankments that require vegetation, the front face of Maccaferri Green
