What is Erosion Control Blanket?
Before
After
Erosion Control Blanket was invented in the 1960`s, and is a method of stabilizing soils during seed germination with a reinforced mulch structure. In the most simplest definition, erosion control blankets are mulch (straw, coconut, wood, plastic) sewn between two polypropylene nets. The netting and thread sandwich the mulch material together, and the blanket can then be rolled out and pinned to the ground with a variety of fasteners. The soil is prepared and seeded, then blankets are rolled out and pinned in place.
Why Use Blankets?
Erosion Control Blankets should be used in areas where flows of water are expected for limited periods of time, or for small areas which do not make sence to bring large hydroseeding equipment out for.
