Erosion Control - FAQs
How does erosion control work in Australia?
Erosion control protects exposed substrates from wind, rain and other forms of water flow, preventing soil erosion. More durable and versatile than standard erosion control in Australia, EARTHLOK™ erosion control solutions are a revolutionary, Australian-made solution to erosion.
EARTHLOK™ erosion control solutions are commonly used on slopes, channels and water ways to prevent erosion damage. Civil engineering projects often need vegetation removal. However, this exposes the bare substrate to the effects of water, wind and human activity, leaving the ground prone to soil erosion.
A lack of erosion control can have serious consequences for a civil engineering project, unless effective erosion control is implemented to protect the substrate. Often, erosion control is installed to slow down the flow of water across a surface. However, erosion control can also be strategically placed to dissipate water pressure so that the force is not acute enough to cause erosion damage.
How long do erosion control blankets last?
Typically made from fibres, whether synthetic or natural, erosion control blankets can be expected to last 4 to 6 years before they degrade. But EARTHLOK™ erosion control in Australia is built to last for decades, not years. With a consistently high standard of design and manufacture, EARTHLOK™ erosion control solutions have an expected lifespan of 100+ years in vegetative applications and 50+ years in non-vegetative.
EARTHLOK™ erosion control is Australian-made and environmentally friendly. With a much lower carbon footprint, one truckload of EARTHLOK™ erosion control is equivalent to 15-20 truckloads of rock.
In addition, EARTHLOK™ erosion control solutions can be custom-made to almost any size, for any unique design specifications. For a long-lasting erosion control solution, contact EARTHLOK™ for a custom quote.
What are erosion control blankets for?
Erosion control protects against the damaging effects of erosion. Scour protection is used in local government infrastructure works and civil engineering projects. Without erosion control, it can have serious environmental implications as a result of sediment laden water runoff entering waterways or sensitive environments.
These detrimental impacts can be mitigated with erosion control products. The best erosion control solutions are cost-effective, durable and have low maintenance needs, while also being environmentally friendly. EARTHLOK™ erosion control is Australian-made in Victoria from a revolutionary sustainability technology in scour protection. The concrete used has a Greenstar rating of 3/4, and one truckload of EARTHLOK™ erosion control is equivalent to 15-20 truckloads of rock.

How do you use erosion control blankets?
Erosion control blankets are laid down to prevent the underlying substrate from being eroded by wind, rain, water flow, and vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
Erosion control solutions are implemented on a civil engineering site where vegetation and topsoil have been removed. The soil is compacted and the sub-grade is prepared appropriately for the specific application. Then, our erosion control solutions are placed on top to protect the substrate from potential erosion.
Erosion control solutions act to stabilise the substrate to protect it from erosion damage. Erosion control also prevents the soil from shifting and can help vegetation re-growth, further stabilising the ground.
