JUTE BIODEGRADABLE EROSION CONTROL MAT (THICK)
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
Jute Mat Thick is a thick or heavy-duty erosion control matting, made from
natural jute fibres that are 100% biodegradable over time. Jute Mat Thick acts as
a mulch, providing weed suppression and moisture retention to enhance plant
establishment, while protecting the topsoil from erosion.
• Protects the soil from erosion, while allowing the seeds to grow through the mat
• Can be subjected to water velocities of up to 1.8 metres per second
• Acts as a roll-on mulch, adding organic matter to the soil as it breaks down
• Ideal for revegetation and can be used to supress weed growth
• Reduces moisture loss due to evaporation to aid the growth of plants
• 100% organic natural fibres which are biodegradable over an 18-month period, and will not
entangle or endanger wildlife
• Strong and flexible when being laid, easily conforming to the contours of the ground
• Ideal for, slopes up to 1:1 grades, roadsides and landscaping, garden and revegetating beds,
wetlands and riparian batters
• Applicable for Road, Waste, Mining, Slopes & Walls, Rail, Coastal, Defence, Renewable Energy,
Sport & Recreation and Civic & Landscaping sectors
