Why We Use Erosion Products?

Erosion has been a problem since the beginning of time; shorelines degraded, topsoil lost, and hillsides washed away. It has not been until recent history that our population has recognized the extreme devastation that erosion creates. Due to this realization, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency created Phase II of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) to help with the erosion and sediment control in America. The way an erosion control product works is that it prevents soil loss and helps vegetation develop a root structure and growth for natural erosion protection. U.S. Erosion Control's wide variety of products has been engineered for all scenarios of erosion from an area that needs minimal protection and rapid degradation, to a replacement for rip rap.

Every development project has areas with the potential for soil erosion. Our Curlex Excelsior Blankets are specifically designed to help control soil erosion on slopes and channels, preserve the soil and promote ideal growing conditions for grass seed, while simultaneously protecting topsoil from wind and water erosion.

By design, Curlex Excelsior Blankets have a built-in swell factor. Wet curled excelsior fibers slightly expand in thickness and interlock to form a strong, fiber matrix. This allows the fibers to provide intimate contact with local terrain. Water flow is trained to follow the curled fiber matrix. The roughness of the curled excelsior matrix slows the velocity to a point where gravity takes over, which allows moisture to slowly seep into the topsoil to promote ideal growing conditions. Curlex Excelsior Blankets are made from weed free excelsior and are green in color.
