Erosion-Control Mat: Allows for Dense Vegetation
EcoTrans is an erosion-control transition mat intended as a replacement for riprap. The mat is made of 100% recycled plastic and can be densely vegetated. It is intended to be used over a turf-reinforcement mat and sod anchored to the topography of the site. The mat’s design allows for more than 50% of open area for vegetation growth. EcoTrans is intended for areas of high hydraulic stress, including culvert outfalls, overflow structures, stream banks and bridge drains as well as levee and shoreline protection.
