GRASSLOK™ is a lightweight, UV-stabilised erosion control mat engineered to protect soil while promoting permanent vegetation growth across diverse Australian environments.
GRASSLOK™ is a lightweight, three-dimensional composition of UV-stabilised, needle-punched polypropylene (PP) fibres. It is engineered to provide an immediate, permanent erosion solution that boosts vegetation establishment in most Australian environmental conditions.
GRASSLOK™ is designed to handle a wide range of flow conditions typically found in applications like embankments, swale drains, and stormwater channels. While exact flow rate suitability depends on site-specific factors such as slope, soil type, and vegetation density, GRASSLOK™ is generally effective for low to moderate flow velocities, typically up to around 3 to 5 meters per second (m/s).
GRASSLOK™ is ideal where immediate or long-term erosion control is required alongside vegetation growth.
