SKU: 6171-CCM300
Coconut Matting 300gsm covers exposed soil straight after earthworks and holds it in place while grass gets established. A freshly graded slope or cut batter is exposed to rain and wind until vegetation takes over, and without cover, topsoil washes downhill before seed has a chance to germinate. This matting weaves 100% coir fibre through a photodegradable polymer mesh, which holds the mat together on site while the open weave still lets light and rain reach the seed underneath. Each roll covers 2m x 50m, weighs around 36kg and is roughly 5mm thick. The coir fibre itself is biodegradable, but the polymer mesh binding is not. That makes this the general-purpose option for standard civil and earthworks sites, rather than waterway margins or wildlife corridors where the jute-bound matting is the better fit. It lays flat on steep grades and holds moisture in the topsoil, so seed establishes faster than on bare ground.

About Coconut Matting - 300GSM - 2m x 50m
The coir fibre is woven through a photodegradable polymer mesh. The mesh holds the mat together through handling and installation, and breaks down slowly under UV exposure over time.
The coir fibre is fully biodegradable. The polymer mesh binding is photodegradable rather than biodegradable, so it breaks down under sunlight rather than composting away completely like jute.
For waterway margins, wetlands or wildlife corridors, the jute-bound coir matting is the better choice, since the netting is fully biodegradable and doesn't carry the entanglement risk synthetic mesh can pose. Use this poly-mesh version for standard civil and earthworks sites instead.
Each roll covers 2m x 50m, weighs around 36kg and is roughly 5mm thick.
Yes. The open weave lets light and water reach the seed underneath, so grass germinates and grows up through the mat as it establishes.
Pin it down close to the soil surface with ground staples along the edges and down the length of the roll. Good contact with the soil is what makes it effective.
Both use the same 300gsm coir fibre. This version is held together with a photodegradable polymer mesh, while the jute version uses biodegradable jute twine throughout. Choose jute for waterway or wildlife-sensitive sites, and this version for general civil and earthworks use.
Yes. Coir mat, coir matting, coconut fibre mat and erosion control blanket are all names used for this category of product.
