ECC3 – Coconut Turf Reinforcement Matting

ECC3 is a Turf Reinforcement Matting that allows for a naturally vegetated finish for steep slopes (1:1) that are prone to erosion and scour.

ECC3 allows for grass applications in stormwater overflow paths and swale drains providing an easy to maintain solution. The use of reinforced grass in swale drain applications also helps to minimise the transmission of waterborne sediments into our waterways and provides a soft green solution. Once vegetated, ECC3 can handle flow velocities up to 7.62 m/s which make it an attractive alternative to traditional hard armour scour protection methods such as concrete and gabions.

Manufactured from a three-dimensional matrix of natural Coconut fibres and reinforced with a UV stabilised synthetic netting, ECC3 is considered to be a permanent TRM. The brown colour of ECC3 allows it to blend in with the surrounding environment until the vegetation is established.
