Local hydrological, biological and geotechnical parameters all play key roles in the complex phenomena of erosion. However, the magnitude of erosion is heavily dependent on the synergistic effects of two main mechanisms: detachment and movement of soil particles due to raindrop impact, and detachment and transport of soil particles due to surface runoff. Among the above, runoff, in particular, caused by high-volume and high-velocity storm waters can erode soil within open channels, drainage ditches, swales, and on steep exposed slopes, increasing the transport of sediments into receiving waters. Erosion control methods vary in their effectiveness, cost and appearance. Tenax geosynthetics for erosion control offer technically sound, environmentally sensitive, yet economical solutions. |

Multimat | |||||||||
| The 3-dimensional "gripping" geomats are designed for the protection and planting of slopes subjected to surface erosion whenever a suitable vegetative substrate soil exists. Typically used: roadway ditches, steep slopes, storm channels. | ||||||||||
 |
Tenweb | |||||||||
| These honeycomb shaped geocells have a central opening through which water can pass, which essentially creates cells that are hydraulically interconnected. Uses: slopes where the ground is dry and rocky due to lack of organic material. | ||||||||||
