Flexible Growth Mediums as an Alternative to ECBs


Profile Flexterra is a hydraulically applied product that creates a protective layer adhering to the soil upon application. When dry, this layer remains porous, allowing grass to grow while resisting erosion. When wet, it maintains its structure for over a year, effectively reducing soil loss and runoff. Flexterra is eco-friendly and provides a cost-effective alternative to traditional rolled erosion control blankets.

Ease of Application: Flexterra is hydraulically applied, making it faster, safer, and easier to install compared to rolled erosion control blankets. This method eliminates the need for extensive site preparation and the labor-intensive process of pinning blankets.

  • Ease of Application: Flexterra is hydraulically applied, making it faster, safer, and easier to install compared to rolled erosion control blankets. This method eliminates the need for extensive site preparation and the labor-intensive process of pinning blankets.
  • Superior Soil Bonding: Flexterra forms an intimate bond with the soil surface, preventing water from getting underneath and causing erosion. This ensures that seeds remain in place and germinate effectively.
  • Enhanced Germination and Vegetation Establishment: Scientific analysis shows that Flexterra can achieve 3-4 times more germination compared to traditional blankets, leading to quicker and more robust vegetation growth.
  • Reduced Soil Loss: Flexterra has been proven to result in 2 times less soil loss compared to double net straw blankets, providing better erosion control.
  • Environmental Benefits: Flexterra reduces the introduction of plastics into the environment, as some erosion control blankets contain nylon reinforcement that can degrade over time.
  • Cost and Time Savings: The hydraulic application of Flexterra saves both time and money by eliminating the need for smoothing the site surface and reducing labor costs associated with blanket installation
