MacMat Geosynthetic Reinforcement
Erosion Protection for Vulnerable Surfaces.
Immediately Increase Resistance to Soil Erosion
MacMat is a proven geomat made of thick polyamide filaments designed to secure vulnerable slope faces and prevent surface erosion from run-off. These mats employ a three-dimensional matrix of UV-stabilized, non-degradable synthetic fibers, heat bonded where they cross.
Highly deformable with light penetration of 20%+, these permanent long-term mats can properly protect a slope from erosion caused by the water flux of rain drops, rills, or rivers, for a cost that is less than you might think and enhances the vegetation growth compared with other solutions
