Erosion control system utilises biodegradable coir fibre for sustainable soil protection
Secumat® Green Coco offers an eco-friendly erosion control solution crafted from 100% untreated coir fibre, ensuring complete biodegradability. This system is available in three configurations: Net (N), Mat (M), and Roll (R), each designed to address specific erosion challenges. The Net variant stabilises soil surfaces, reducing runoff and erosion risk, making it ideal for vegetating trench and brook slopes, as well as dykes. The Mat version provides a protective layer that mitigates temperature fluctuations and conserves soil moisture, supporting vegetation on slopes and troughs.
The Roll configuration is particularly effective for securing the foot of slopes and managing debris in flowing water. All variants are easy to install, require minimal maintenance, and naturally decompose, eliminating disposal concerns. Secumat® Green Coco is suitable for applications where vegetation establishment may take up to 36 months, offering a cost-effective and environmentally responsible choice for erosion control projects.
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
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.

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.

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.
