Straw Matting Design
The straw erosion mats are made from a biodegradable straw material and are available in either a single or double net design. Unlike items such as coir, these mats are able to biodegrade at a faster rate that is perfect for shorter term erosion control applications. Design of these blankets includes the following:
- Wheat Straw Fibers
- Photodegradable Netting (Single or Double)
- Sold by the Roll
As mentioned above, these straw mats are available with either a single or double net design. Single netting blankets will typically biodegrade over a shorter period of time, making them perfect for locations with short term erosion control requirements.
