BioNet® SC150BN™ Double Net Straw-Coconut Blanket
BioNet® SC150BN™ features a layer of 70% straw and 30% coconut fiber stitched with biodegradable thread between biodegradable natural fiber top and bottom nets. SC150BN is designed to provide erosion protection and mulching for up to 18 months in applications where synthetic materials may pose a threat to animals or the environment, such as wetland mitigation and bioengineering projects, and where the strength of a double net structure and the added erosion control properties of coconut fiber are required.
Providing better moisture absorption, flexibility and conformance with the soil surface, SC150BN demonstrates improved erosion control and mulching capabilities versus products with photodegradable plastic netting and yarn that depend on sunlight to degrade.
The top net on the SC150BN is leno woven which ensures superior mechanical stability and fiber retention under severe conditions and makes the SC150BN more stable than other biodegradable blankets that use cross-lay netting only.
The interwoven strands of the leno woven top net can move independently of each other, minimizing the risk of accidental wildlife entrapment and enabling the use of live stakes and installation of trees, shrubs and other plantings – without compromising erosion control performance.
