Woven Coir Fabrics

KoirMat™ 400, 700, 900 & 1000

Overview

Nedia offers a full line of 100% natural woven coir (coconut fiber) erosion control fabrics. Our line of products in this category includes

KoirMat is made from well cleaned, high strength, fresh water cured coconut fiber. Coconut fiber is extracted from coconut husks which are submerged in fresh water streams or storage tanks for a period of several months. During this process known as retting, water constantly flows through the coir fiber matrix removing impurities present in the fiber. The clean fiber is extracted and spun into yarn which is then woven into KoirMat.

KoirMat erosion control matting is highly versatile with a wide array of applications in bioengineering and erosion control. KoirMat by far exceeds the demand for an environmentally friendly and economic erosion control product.

Benefits:

Coir fiber has one of the highest durability and tensile strengths among all natural fibers. The high lignin content (46% by weight) of KoirMat makes it naturally resistant to mold and rot and hence requires no chemical treatment.

KoirMat naturally absorbs and retains water while retaining its integrity providing an ideal microclimate for the growth of vegetation. KoirMat resembles the soil in its ability to absorb solar radiation to prevent overheating – a problem with many synthetic materials. The natural color of KoirMat makes it aesthetically pleasing. After years of effective erosion control and vegetation anchoring, KoirMat decomposes and joins the natural ecological cycle, providing soil nutrients in the process. Environmentally safe and biodegradable, KoirMat is the preferred choice of erosion control specialists around the world.

Longevity:

Depending on its application and exposure, KoirMat lasts three to six years. This extended longevity period allows enough time to establish adequate vegetation allowing erosion control the way nature intended.

Coconut Fiber Logs

KoirLog™ 12, 16 & 20

Overview

KoirLogs are natural coconut fiber logs with applications in wetland mitigation, shoreline stabilization and stream banks/channel protection. Nedia’s KoirLogs are made from double cleaned, unsorted coconut fiber encased in high tensile strength coir twine netting. KoirLogs help to dissipate the impact from wave action and flowing water, trap sediments and encourage vegetation growth.

During installation, seedlings or plant cuttings can be planted into the KoirLog. Sediment trapped by the KoirLog as well as the inherent property of the coir fiber to absorb and retain moisture provides an ideal medium for vegetation establishment and growth.

Sizes:

KoirLog™s are available in 12”, 16” and 20” diameters. The logs are typically 10 or 20 feet long.

Densities:

KoirLogs are available in Normal Density (ND Series) of 7 lbs/cu .ft. and High Density (HD Series) of 9 lbs/cu .ft. KoirLogs with a normal density of 7 lbs/cu .ft. (ND Series) are easier to handle, install and plant. The normal density logs also encourage rapid root development. Designers must evaluate the site conditions in order to choose the appropriate size, density and number of tiers of KoirLogs to be used. Some parameters to consider are flow velocity, wave height, stream energy, soil type and accessibility to the project site.

Longevity:

KoirLogs generally last for two to five years. As the KoirLog biodegrades, the plants develop a well established root system in the shoreline sediment which will retain the soil in place preventing further erosion. The decomposing KoirLogs provides valuable humus to the soil.

Soil Wrap Fabric

KoirWrap™ 1000

KoirWrap™ 1200

Fabric wrapped soil construction is one of the most resilient bioengineering techniques to stabilize streambanks. This technique relies on the strongest type of coir fabric construction to reinforce soil lifts, high density plantings of rows of willow cuttings, native seeds, and in many cases a reinforced stone toe to protect against toe scour. Like all bioengineered designs using degradable fabric, the concept is to rely on fabrics during the initial (three to six years) soil stabilization period. As the fabric degrades, the installed vegetation provides the necessary erosion protection and aesthetic benefits. KoirWrap1000 & KoirWrap 1200 are excellent fabrics for this type of bank treatment.

KoirWrap 1000 & KoirWrap 1200 is a double-layered biodegradable erosion control fabric made up of an outer layer of high strength continuously woven coir matting and an inner layer of lightweight jute fabric connected together at regular intervals. KoirWrap 1000 & KoirWrap 1200 is ideal for fabric wrapped soil construction on steep slopes and along streambanks.

Typical Applications

  • Slopes and streambank stabilization
  • Landscaping and bioengineering
  • Revegetation of construction damaged slopes

Advantages

  • An excellent product for fabric wrapped soil construction
  • Outer layer of woven coir fabric provides strength
  • Inner layer of woven jute fabric retains fines during period of plant establishment
