Slopetame² is a permanent three-dimensional reinforcement and stabilization
matrix for steep vegetated slopes and channel banks. The integral rings,
bars, grid, and fabric act to contain upper root zone soils, allow vegetation
roots to easily pass through, and minimize movement and loss by rain or
flowing water.
Slopetame² is shipped in roll form, with connections allowing rolls
to be fastened together forming one large continuous mat covering the entire
face of long slopes.
Rolls can also be pre-vegetated by vibrating sod into rings (or growing
custom plant mixes in mat by contract), to allow mats to be placed and
anchored to slopes with established root systems, able to withstand intense
rainfall or water flow immediately. Holes can be cut in the mat to provide
for large containerized or balled plant material.
Applications Include:
-
Steep Slope Erosion Control
-
Channel Bank Stabilization
-
Channel Energy Dissipation
-
Infiltration Trenches
-
Immediate Slope Protection
-
Vegetated Swales and Strips (with pre-vegetation)
