High Performance Turf Reinforment Mats
The Pyramat®
In your search for the perfect soil erosion control products for your application, consider the Pyramat®, also known as a High Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat (HPTRM). Designed to perform in the most demanding applications, these mats feature the patented X3® fiber technology. The three-dimensional pyramid-like design of woven polypropylene monofilament yarns, locks in the seed and soil, and is ten times stronger than a standard TRM.
This soil erosion control product performs at its best with steep slopes, waterways, and arid climates. UV stabilized, it will have a long lasting life promoting and supporting vegetation growth in the most challenging situations.
