High-Performance Permanent Erosion Control & Turf Reinforcement for Steep Slopes and High-Flow Areas
The Sandbaggy Turf Reinforcement Mat (TRM) is a heavy-duty erosion control solution designed to provide immediate soil stabilization and long-term turf reinforcement in demanding environments. Made with durable green polypropylene fibers stitched between black UV stabilized netting, this 10 oz erosion control mat helps protect seeds, newly sprouted grass, and vegetation from washouts caused by wind, rain, and water flow.
Engineered for applications requiring erosion control for greater than 36 months, this turf reinforcement mat delivers excellent strength and stability for steep slopes, channels, embankments, riverbanks, shoreline stabilization projects, and vegetated waterways. Its durable construction makes it especially ideal for arid and semi-arid climates where long-lasting reinforcement is critical.

FAQs
Do I need staples or stakes to install this mat?
Yes. Turf reinforcement mats are typically secured using landscape staples, stakes, or anchors depending on the application and soil conditions.
Will grass grow through the grass seed mat?
Yes. The open structure allows vegetation to grow through the mat while reinforcing the root system and helping prevent erosion.
Can this be used in water flow areas or for soil stabilization?
Yes. It is commonly used in channels, vegetated waterways, riverbanks, and shoreline stabilization projects.
Is this erosion control blanket biodegradable?
No. This is a permanent turf reinforcement mat made with UV stabilized synthetic materials for long-term erosion control performance.
