Erosion control biodegradable mat ENKAMAT® R

three-dimensionalpolyamidefor river banks

Enkamat R is a unitized high-performance geosynthetic that incorporates a high tenacity polyester geogrid within the entangled filaments of the three-dimensional polyamide erosion control mat. Enkamat R can be custom made to provide various levels of reinforcement to meet any design requirements but as standard is manufactured as R45 utilizing a 45 kN/m high tenacity polyester geogrid. Enkamat R is appropriate in many areas that are subject to erosion, such as stormwater channels, watercourses, embankments, steep slopes and spillways. Functions Erosion control Grip layer Superior and extreme turf reinforcement Application areas Canal and shoreline protection Repair of slope failures Levee armoring Steep slope and channel stabilisation Features and benefits A permanent and green solution Remains anchored by reinforced root system Provides maximum reinforcement at low elongations Withstands wheel loading and resists burrowing animals Unparalleled resistance to hydraulic shear stresses Withstands high flow velocities Ideal for designs using percussive driven earth anchors Over 90% open volume Robust reinforcement of vegetative root system Open structure enhances vegetation emergence Blends discretely into the local environment Flexible to adapt to any soil profile Remains locked to the ground by root systems Specific gravity >1 means it will not float High UV resistance Maintenance free
