Armour Matting
Superior strength bank stabilisation
Armourmat is a three-dimensional matrix of UV stabilised, non-degradable synthetic fibres, heat bonded where they cross then extruded onto a double twisted steel woven mesh.
Armourmat is used on steep soil slopes vulnerable to erosion. Once installed it immediately increases the soil’s resistance to erosive runoff displacement by providing conditions that enhances the growth of underlying vegetation through the medium (such as existing foliage or quality topsoil).
Armourmat is used extensively in projects involving:
❍ Erosion control
❍ Surface strengthening and support
❍ Longitudinal protection
❍ Channels and culverts
❍ Slope protection
Applications include:
❍ River and coastal projects
❍ Reservoirs, lakes and ponds
❍ Rockfall embankments
❍ Capping lining systems
