RMB Hydroseeding: Erosion Control Solutions



Erosion Control Solutions The critical implications of this important aspect are fully understood, we are able to apply tried and tested solutions to this problem using the following solutions;
HBRS^® Our HBRS^® (Hessian Blanket Retention System) is a natural, low cost and effective method of giving extra stabilisation to embankments prone to surface erosion. Combining natural fabrics with hydro-mulch and special binding agents, HBRS^® prevents surface erosion until the grass sward has become established enough to hold the soil. Due to the weave of the fabric heavy rainfall is dispersed instead of hitting the soil and preventing erosion. Within 12-18 months of applying HBRS^®, it has decomposed. The light brown colour and organic make-up of the natural hessian/jute fibres mean it is more aesthetic and environmentally friendly than any other erosion control system. • HBRS Data Sheet
Flexterra^® FGM™ Flexterra^® FGM™ (flexible growth medium) is designed using patented technology that immediately bonds to the soil, providing slope protection superior to rolled Erosion Control Blankets. Flexterra^® FGM™ has demonstrated unprecedented performance levels when evaluated by the most prominent slope erosion testing laboratories, as well as in a broad range of field applications. Flexterra^® FGM™ is a hydraulically applied, flexible erosion control blanket composed of long strand, thermally processed wood fibres, crimped, interlocking fibres and performance enhancing additives. Flexterra^® FGM™ requires no curing period and upon application, forms an intimate bond with the soil surface to create a continuous, porous, absorbent and erosion-resistant blanket that allows for rapid seed germination and accelerated plant growth. As the first UK company to use Flexterra^® FGM™ we have the experience and product knowledge needed to correctly apply this specialist form of hydro-mulch. • Flexterra FGM Brochure • Flexterra Case Study • Technical Data Sheet
GreenArmor™ System As the world’s most effective Green-Engineering™ alternative, the GreenArmor™ System offers a more aesthetically pleasing, environmentally superior and cost-efficient means of protecting high-discharge waterways and steep slopes. Delivering permanent protection, the Enkamat^® TRM (turf reinforcement matting) is designed as a lofty and open matrix that is hydraulically in filled with Flexterra^® FGM™ to intimately bond soil and seeds. This synergistic combination provides immediate erosion protection to prevent soil loss and creates the optimum micro-environment to enhance seed germination and plant emergence by insulating the seed bed while absorbing and retaining moisture. This unique system brings together the most technologically advanced erosion control and re-vegetation products to provide twice the erosion resistance of natural vegetation, allowing you to grow denser vegetation, faster. • GreenArmor Brochure • GreenArmor Case Study • Technical Data Sheet
Fibre Glass Reinforcement On steep slopes prone to surface erosion, fibre glass rovings are floated onto the area with compressed air to create a matrix of fine fibres. The matrix is then hydroseeded using 100% wood fibre hydro-mulch and additional binding agents, once the new vegetation has established the fibre glass fibres become an integral part of the root structure giving permanent protection from erosion.
