Composed of coconut fiber, coir fiber logs can prevent long-term erosion and stabilize shorelines, harbors, ports, etc. from the dangers of erosion. They are a great fit for avoiding erosion problems while growing vegetation in the area.
Typically, and depending on the density of the coir fiber log, protection against erosion may last up to seven years. Average protection lasts 5-7 years depending on the installation, type of fiber, environment, etc.
The coir fiber is encased by a netting structure. Netting types vary, and are dictated by site conditions. Coir logs sometimes are pre-drilled and then plugged with vegetation.
Typically, coir fiber logs are available in diameters ranging from 12 to 20 inches.
Coir fiber mats are often used in sloping areas adjacent to coir fiber log installations, and provide longterm soil protection as vegetation becomes established.
