Webinar: Temporary erosion control – Sustainable protection with Secumat® Green

Inspired by nature, made for the future: Erosion control with biodegradable 3D Meshes

Erosion control is a key factor in ensuring the safety and stability of slopes, watercourse banks and adjacent infrastructure. While natural fibre products – such as jute and coir – often lose their effectiveness after just 1–3 years, and permanent systems (such as Secumat® ClassicLine, e.g. PP-based solutions) provide long-term protection, many projects require a temporary yet reliable solution.
With Secumat® Green 3D Mesh, a biodegradable erosion control mat is now available for the first time. It provides dependable stabilisation of slopes and surfaces for up to 10 years before fully integrating into the natural vegetation.

About the webinar:

In this webinar, you will learn how smart water management and modern erosion control strategies can help prevent damage and extend the lifespan of your projects. Using real-world examples, we will explore how drainage systems from roadside ditches to shallow channels can be designed and built to perform reliably, even under extreme conditions.

We will highlight the key physical factors, such as flow velocity, particle size, and erosive force, that influence material selection and construction methods. You will also discover common failure patterns caused by inadequate water strategies – and how to avoid them. In addition, we will introduce digital planning tools that allow you to quickly, precisely, and project-specifically select and dimension erosion control systems and revegetation solutions.
