FAQ’s

What is Coir Mat?

A coir mat is a natural, biodegradable erosion control product made from coconut fibers. It helps stabilize soil, prevent erosion, and support vegetation growth in areas like slopes, riverbanks, and wetlands.

What is the purpose of coconut matting?

The primary purpose of coconut matting is to prevent soil erosion and support vegetation establishment. It is commonly used in challenging environments, such as steep slopes, riverbanks, shorelines, and areas prone to erosion.

How long does coconut matting last?

Coconut matting typically lasts between 2 to 5 years, depending on environmental conditions. During this time, it provides effective erosion control and eventually biodegrades, adding organic matter to the soil.

Is coir matting the same as coconut matting?

Yes, coir matting and coconut matting are the same product. Both are made from natural coconut fibers and serve as biodegradable solutions for erosion control.

How does coir matting prevent erosion?

Coir matting prevents erosion by acting as a protective layer that cushions the soil from the impact of rain. Its mesh structure helps hold the soil in place, reducing displacement and promoting stability, even on steep slopes.

Installation Instructions

Prepare the Soil: Rake the area to remove stones and clods. For larger jobs, use a Bobcat or tractor. Avoid compacting the soil. If using fertilizer, add it before grading.
Distribute Seeds and Mulch: Evenly spread seeds and mulch (if needed) over the prepared soil.
Apply Coir Matting: Unroll the coir matting down the slope or along the direction of water flow.
Dig a Trench: Create a trench at the top of the slope, 6 inches deep and 6 inches wide.
Install Matting in Trench: Place the coir matting in the trench, extending at least 12 inches of the roll above the trench. Secure with staples spaced 1 foot apart.
Backfill and Compact: After securing the trench, backfill and compact the soil inside.
Cover the Trench: Bring the extra 12 inches of coir matting down to cover the trench, and secure with additional staples, spaced 1 foot apart.
Staple the Matting: Secure the matting to the ground by placing staples 18-24 inches apart, ensuring all staples are flush with the soil.
Overlap Edges: Always overlap the edges by 2-6 inches. At the end of each roll, fold back 4-9 inches and overlap it by 4-8 inches over the next roll. Securely staple both layers to the ground.
