Coconut Coir Logs for Natural, Sustainable Solutions
Benefits of Using Coconut Coir Logs for Erosion Control
Our Erosion Control Coir Logs products are made from 100% natural coconut fibers and they provide effective soil stabilization and erosion prevention
along riverbanks, slopes, streambeds, hillsides, and other erosion-prone areas. These coir fiber rolls feature densely packed coir fibers enclosed within a durable tubular coir twine netting to offer superior strength and reinforcement.
Both the coconut coir fibers and netting are biodegradable, making them an eco-friendly and safe solution for the surrounding environment. As the logs naturally break down over time, they enrich the soil, encouraging vegetation growth and contributing to long-term stabilization.

Note: Coir, like many products, is sourced from overseas. During these challenging times, due to trouble with supply and getting the products through the port systems, many products are less available. When they are available, they are more expensive. Coir is one of the products affected this way, across the entire industry. However, there are alternatives. Contact us to learn about other affordable and more readily available alternatives to coir, including biodegradable options.

Standard Density Coir Logs – Budget-Friendly Erosion Control Solution
Our Standard Density Coir Logs are the industry standard for erosion control in typical conditions. These logs offer an affordable, sustainable option for slope stabilization and erosion prevention. They are made from 100% biodegradable coir fibers, they are encased in durable 2"x2" coir netting. As the coir material biodegrades over time, it creates a supportive environment for vegetation growth, helping to establish long-term erosion control.
These coir logs are ideal for use in moderate erosion-prone areas, providing a natural solution for soil stabilization while promoting vegetative growth as part of an eco-friendly approach to erosion control.
- 100% Biodegradable: Environmentally safe and sustainable
- Promotes Vegetation Growth: Encourages plant establishment for long-term soil stabilization.
- Affordable and Effective: An economical option for typical conditions
High Density Coir Logs – Premium Erosion Control for Challenging Terrain
High Density Coir Logs are specifically designed for use in rugged terrain, areas exposed to high flow, or harsh environmental conditions. These logs are perfect for demanding applications such as streambank stabilization, lakeshore protection, and slope stabilization. Made from 100% coir fibers and encased in rhombic coir netting, they are known for their superior strength and long-lasting performance in the field.
These high-density coir logs provide reliable erosion control and soil stabilization in even the most challenging environments, ensuring durability and effectiveness for extended periods.
- Designed for Harsh Environments: Ideal for areas with high flow or severe weather conditions
- Superior Strength: Offers long-lasting erosion control performance
- Sustainable and Biodegradable: Safe for the environment as they naturally degrade over time
Pre-Drilled Coir Logs – Easy Installation with Enhanced Planting Opportunities
Pre-Drilled Coir Logs are designed for quick and easy installation, saving time and effort on your project. These logs come with pre-drilled slots that are spaced approximately 2 feet apart, allowing for simple staking and planting of seedlings. They require fewer stakes, and the pre-drilled holes also make it easier to plant and support vegetation directly within the logs.
Available in both standard density and high-density options, Pre-Drilled Coir Logs offer flexibility in erosion control projects. Whether you need a budget-friendly solution or one for challenging terrain, these logs provide an efficient way to combat erosion while encouraging vegetation growth.
- Effortless Installation: Pre-drilled slots reduce the need for extra stakes
- Ideal for Planting: Slots make it easier to plant vegetation, improving long-term soil stabilization
- Versatile Options: Available in both standard and high-density versions
Applications of Coir Logs for Erosion Control
- Shoreline Stabilization: Coir logs are highly effective in stabilizing riverbanks, lakeshores, and coastal areas, providing a natural barrier that prevents soil erosion caused by waves, currents, and storms. These logs help to protect valuable waterfront property and preserve the integrity of natural habitats along shorelines.
- Slope Stabilization: In areas exposed to heavy rainfall or water runoff, coir logs are used to stabilize steep slopes and prevent soil erosion. They help retain soil and support vegetation growth, which further enhances long-term stabilization. This makes them ideal for use in landscaping, construction sites, and areas prone to landslides. Learn how coir logs can stabilize shoreline on our Coir Logs and Bank Stabilization page.
- Streambank & Riverbank Reinforcement: Coir logs are a perfect solution for reinforcing streambanks and riverbanks that are vulnerable to erosion. By reducing sediment loss and stabilizing the soil, they help protect water quality in riparian zones and reduce the impact of floods, preserving aquatic habitats and ecosystems. Learn how coir logs can reinforce banks on our River Bank Protection with Coir Logs page.
- Beach Restoration: Coir logs are essential for beach restoration projects. They act as a barrier to prevent shoreline erosion caused by heavy surf and storms, helping to retain sand and protect the beach's natural landscape. Over time, they biodegrade, encouraging the growth of vegetation that further stabilizes the beach.
- Shoreline Vegetation Support: Coir logs are an excellent tool for supporting shoreline vegetation. They provide a stable base for planting native vegetation, which naturally reinforces the erosion control process. As the vegetation grows, it further stabilizes the soil, reducing the likelihood of future erosion. Coir log can also use along shorelines; check out more information on our Erosion Control Along Shorelines
