Sustainable, temporary coir fibre erosion control solution
Secumat® Green Coco: Sustainable protection against erosion on slopes, trenches, and brooks
Secumat® Green Coco is a sustainable, temporary erosion control solution from 100% untreated coir fibre and completely biodegradable.
Secumat® Green Coco is available as
- Net (N)
- Mat (M)
- Roll (R)
Secumat® Green Coco N
Secumat® Green Coco N is a sustainable, temporary erosion control solution. It comprises a two-ply, 100% untreated coir fibre which is mechanically woven into a net in the warp and weft and is completely biodegradable.
Secumat® Green Coco N delays surface run-off and stabilises the surface of the soil, significantly reducing the risk of soil erosion. With the three variants of coir net many different project requirements are met in terms of tensile strength and service life.
Typical solutions
- Vegetating trench/brook slopes
- Vegetating dykes
- Securing and vegetating infrastructure slopes
Benefits
- 100% biodegradable
- Cost-effective due to minimal maintenance and no disposal costs
- Quick and easy to install and no need to be covered
- Can be used in different applications such as slopes > 35°
- Ideal for cases where the development of vegetation requires more than 12 months
Secumat® Green Coco M
Secumat® Green Coco M is a sustainable, temporary erosion control solution. This coir fibre mat is quilted on both sides with a carrier made of jute fabric and jute fibres. The filling is 100% biodegradable, untreated coir fibre.
The fibre structure acts as a separating and coarse filter layer and effectively reduces the erosive energy of precipitation and flowing water.
The coir filling also protects the vegetation growing underneath against significant temperature fluctuations and reduces evaporation of water close to the surface.
Typical solution
- Vegetating slopes
- Trough vegetation
- Trickle protection in facing systems
Benefits
- 100% biodegradable
- Cost-effective due to minimal maintenance and no disposal costs
- Quick and easy to install and no need to be covered
- Can be used in different applications such as slopes < 40°
- Ideal for cases where the development of vegetation requires no more than 36 months
Secumat® Green Coco R
Secumat® Green Coco R is a sustainable, temporary erosion control solution.
It comprises a securely knotted netting tube made from mechanically twisted coir twins which is filled with untreated coir fibres.
Secumat® Green Coco R are always used as finished components where bank fascines or reed rolls cannot cope with the requirements, for example, when securing the foot of a slope or for temporary interventions in the event of transportation of debris and regulating running water.
Typical solutions
- Vegetating slopes
- Trough vegetation
- Securing trench/brook slopes
Benefits
- 100% biodegradable
- Cost-effective due to minimal maintenance and no disposal costs
- Reduction of water turbidity and silting of the trench/brook bed
Software and product recommendation for erosion control systems
Naue erosion control systems provide temporary and permanent erosion control for any application in the form of Secumat® products. This includes the Secumat® ClassicLine geocells, earth anchors and erosion control steel pins as well as combined 3D Mesh products. Secumat® GreenLine uses biodegradable areal products and wooden pins for fixing.
