G-Mat is
a natural fibre biodegradable mat incorporating grass or
wildflower seeds. It is a non-woven mat of sisal and
other fibres that gives 100% surface cover. G-Mat
is designed to immediately establish a stable
surface to newly prepared soil slopes and banks above
the water level.
Left exposed, soil is
at risk of erosion from wind, rain or water and the
result is instability and highly polluting, silt laden
run-off.
At times like
this nature needs a helping hand. G-Mat is the
instant answer. Firstly, it covers, insulates and
protects the surface. Secondly, the impregnated seed mix
germinates and creates a green environment to
permanently stabilise the soil. Thirdly, the G-Mat
biodegrades slowly to form nutrients for sustained plant
growth.
There are several
standard seed mixes available to suit various
installation conditions, e.g. salt resisting, low
maintenance, low fertility, DTp, as well as several wild
flower mixes. G-mat is also available by
request with water absorbing gel and PKN fertiliser. The
seeds are securely embedded into the mat and cannot be
displaced during transportation or handling.
Benefits
-
Eliminates on site seeding.
-
Easy to
lay even on steep slopes.
-
Retains
soil moisture.
-
Insulates
the soil.
-
Extends
successful sowing period.
-
Biodegrades in 2-3 years.
-
Low Cost.
The exact
composition of G-mat has been proven to give
the optimum mass for soil protection and seed
germination. G-mat tends to trap moisture
between the underside and the soil to encourage seed
germination. |
