Ultra Short Term Erosion Control Blankets are typically made from raw materials, such as straw, with a shorter biodegradable lifespan around 45 to 90 days. They tend to break down much quicker than other forms of ECBs because their netting and fill material are 100% biodegradable, and they are a great solution for lighter applications.
Ultra short term blankets made of biodegradable materials afford an economical option for erosion control. They are designed and implemented to stabilize in-situ soil, thus reducing non-point-source pollution. ECBs provide many advantages as erosion control solutions including cost, speed of implementation, ability to vegetate, and meet a variety of longevity and performance criteria. Contact your GEO Pro to help specify the correct ECB by the intended longevity and performance for your project.
