Description

Heavy-Duty Coir Blanket for High-Risk Erosion Zones

Coir SoilLock 450 is the premium heavy-duty biodegradable erosion control blanket in the SoilLock™ range.

It is specifically engineered for:

  • Steeper slopes

  • Higher rainfall intensity zones

  • Exposed mine rehabilitation areas

  • Channels with moderate flow

  • Long vegetation establishment periods

The increased fibre mass creates a denser protective matrix, significantly improving:

  • Soil retention

  • Surface shielding

  • Moisture conservation

  • Resistance to washout

Why Coir SoilLock 450 Leads the Market

  • 450gsm high-density coir fibre matrix

  • Enhanced erosion resistance vs 350gsm

  • Improved moisture retention for vegetation

  • More robust under rainfall and runoff

  • Longer effective protection period

  • Ideal for demanding mining and infrastructure projects

Typical Applications

  • Mine rehabilitation slopes (primary use case)

  • Steep embankments

  • High rainfall erosion zones

  • Drainage lines and channels

  • Landfill slopes

  • Infrastructure corridors

  • Riverbanks and environmental restoration
