Drone view of a major hydraulic engineering and flood protection project featuring Naue geosynthetic solutions for erosion control and embankment stabilisation. Black geosynthetic layers are being installed on long dike slopes while heavy machinery and construction crews work across the active site.

Erosion control

Surface protection and revegetation for slopes, banks and channels

Exposed slopes, embankments, stream beds and riverbanks lose material to rain, run-off and hydraulic loading, and Naue supplies the surface-protection solution for each of these areas.

Naue’s Secumat® three-dimensional geomats and geocells, combined with Secutex® filters and Secugrid® reinforcement, hold soil in place and support permanent revegetation, all engineered in Germany with full conformity documentation.

Erosion control: frequently asked questions

Secumat® three-dimensional turf reinforcement mats create an open matrix that holds soil and seed in place, dissipating the energy of rainfall and run-off. Vegetation roots grow through and bond with the mat, forming a permanent, erosion-resistant surface.

Geocell systems confine and stabilise fill on steeper slopes and under higher hydraulic or mechanical loads, providing three-dimensional confinement where a surface mat alone would be insufficient.

A combination of Secumat® surface protection, Secutex® filter geotextiles and, where required, Secugrid® reinforcement stabilises bank and channel slopes against erosive flow, wave action and rainfall, protecting structures, habitats and adjacent land.

Yes. The Secumat® range includes variants with biodegradable natural fibres (e.g. coco and jute) that provide temporary erosion protection while vegetation establishes and then decompose naturally.

Yes. The systems are specifically engineered to promote revegetation: they retain topsoil and seed, improve moisture retention and integrate with the growing root system to deliver long-term, self-sustaining protection.
