Coconut Matting Jute 2m x 50m x 300gsm

SKU: 6171-CCJM300

$340.00 + GST

Coconut Matting Jute 300 GSM covers exposed soil the moment earthworks finish, before rain or wind get a chance to strip it away. A freshly cut batter or graded slope is at its most vulnerable in the weeks before grass takes hold: heavy rain washes topsoil straight downhill, and wind lifts loose material off any area still bare. The matting is woven from 100% coir (coconut fibre) and stitched together with jute twine, so the open weave cushions rainfall while still letting light and water through to seed underneath. Each roll covers 2m x 50m and weighs around 36kg. It's fully biodegradable, and breaks down naturally once vegetation takes hold. The matting also holds moisture in the topsoil, so seed germinates faster than on bare ground. Civil and earthworks crews use it on cut slopes and open batters across New Zealand sites, wherever bare soil needs to be locked down until the site greens up.

What is Coconut Matting Jute?

Coconut Matting Jute 300 GSM covers exposed soil the moment earthworks finish, before rain or wind get a chance to strip it away. A freshly cut batter or graded slope is at its most vulnerable in the weeks before grass takes hold: heavy rain washes topsoil straight downhill, and wind lifts loose material off any area still bare. The matting is woven from 100% coir (coconut fibre) and stitched together with jute twine, so the open weave cushions rainfall while still letting light and water through to seed underneath. Each roll covers 2m x 50m and weighs around 36kg. It’s fully biodegradable, and breaks down naturally once vegetation takes hold. The matting also holds moisture in the topsoil, so seed germinates faster than on bare ground. Civil and earthworks crews use it on cut slopes and open batters across New Zealand sites, wherever bare soil needs to be locked down until the site greens up.

Benefits

  • Cuts topsoil loss on slopes and batters in the weeks before grass establishes
  • Cushions rainfall so it doesn't strip seed and soil straight off a graded slope
  • Open weave lets light and water through, so seed underneath still germinates
  • Lays flat on steep grades without kinking or wrinkling
  • Holds moisture in the topsoil, helping seed germinate faster than bare ground
  • Fully biodegradable coir and jute construction, breaks down once vegetation takes over
  • Comes in a 2m x 50m roll, covering ground fast on large earthworks areas

Main Applications

  • Covering cut batters and graded slopes straight after earthworks, before rain hits
  • Stabilising drainage channels and swales prone to washout during storms
  • Protecting newly seeded areas while grass germinates and establishes root cover
  • Lining stockpile edges and exposed cut faces on civil and earthworks sites
  • Rehabilitating riverbank and waterway margins where erosion control is required

How to install

Coconut Matting Jute

  1. Grade and clear the area of large stones, clods and debris so the matting sits flush against the soil.
  2. Spread seed and any fertiliser over the prepared soil before laying the matting.
  3. Dig a small anchor trench across the top of the slope, roughly 150mm deep and wide.
  4. Unroll the matting down the slope in the direction of water flow, starting from the anchor trench.
  5. Backfill and compact the anchor trench to lock the top edge of the matting in place.
  6. Pin the matting down with ground staples along the edges and at regular intervals across the roll, keeping it flush with the soil.
  7. Overlap adjoining rolls by at least 150mm and staple through both layers to stop water getting underneath.
  8. Check the full area for gaps or lifted edges once installed, and add extra staples wherever the matting isn't sitting flush.

We suggest following the steps above for the best installation results. If you have any questions or need assistance, our team is here to help.
