Green 3D Geomat
3D Geomat is a new high-polymer synthetic material used for soil fixing and grass planting. It is loose and flexible in texture, with 90% of its space left empty for filling soil, gravel and fine stone. It facilitates comfortable, balanced plant growth and combines soil and geomat to form a solid green composite protective layer.
Waterproof
The waterproof capability of Green 3D Geomat helps to protect bare soil surface against damage or pollution caused by raindrops, run off water or wind erosion. It prevents the top soil from being washed away while vegetation is getting established and enables the revegetation of the slope surface.
The three-dimensional high strength mat is made of polyamide or polypropylene raw materials. It is used for the protection of embankments, slopes, reservoirs, rivers-river banks and channels. Its unique structure allows plants to quickly anchor roots into the mat. The mat has a good self-healing property for small damages.
A biodegradable version of the product is also available. This variant is sewn on a biodegradable backing. During installation, make sure that its three-dimensional open structure faces down and the biodegradable backing upwards. Geotextile fabric or geomembranes can be bound to one or two sides of the mat for embankment drainage, or for use on rocky, steep or sloping surfaces to prevent soil slippage. Hexagonal wire mesh reinforced versions of the mat are available to ensure that plants hold tightly and stabilize the soil.
The plant-friendly geomat is ideal at, below and above the water level and can be placed on dry slopes like the bottom of channel, river lake or spillways. It easily accepts hydroseeding and shrub planting where more rapid colonization is required. It can replace concrete, asphalt, stone and other slope materials, mainly for road, railway, river, dam and other slope surface protection.
Erosion Control
ACEMat is a plant-friendly three dimensional erosion control mat which helps to protect soil Green 3D Geomat surfaces from wind and rain before vegetation grows. It also prevents the direct wash of the rain or surface runoff and keeps the slope steady, it has stood several typhoons after its construction.
Unlike traditional shotcrete slope protection engineering method, it is a much more environmentally friendly way to stabilize and protect the steep and rocky slopes. It can be easily installed, just cut it to the required size and lay it on the slope, it’s that simple!
The 3D entangled mat has a void space of over 90%, it can be used to trap soil particles and seeds, support the growth of grass roots and anchor them. Its flat underside makes an even contact with the soil surface and its cuspated upper surface offers a reinforcing matrix.
Its high tensile strength and anti-puncture properties enhance its shear resistance, it can spread the loads between soil-nail heads in slope stabilization solutions. It can also be used to improve the permeability of the underlying soils and reduce the pore water pressure and soil gravity, thereby improving its anti-erosion capability. It is plant-friendly, physically protects vulnerable soil surfaces and encourages grass or shrub planting, allowing the ground to colonize faster. Moreover, it can be anchored with steel pins to increase its durability.
Biodegradable
Unlike concrete or stone walls, Green 3D Geomat can be easily removed and used again. This is because it is a biodegradable product. It is made from a combination of natural fibres like jute, straw, coconut or cellulose fiber felt and biodegradable polymer based synthetics.
This three-dimensional network-like fabric is placed over the surface of steep slopes and protects them from erosion. It also supports and speeds up revegetation. It is suitable for a wide range of projects including roads, railway embankments, river banks and canals.
Geomats can help to prevent erosion caused by surface runoff, rain or hydraulic action. The material can be inserted between layered soil or rock and provides a support structure for plant roots as they Polypropylene bidirectional geogrid develop. They can be installed either before or after a soil reinforcement solution and provide immediate erosion protection.
In addition to providing an immediate erosion control solution, they can be incorporated into the final slope stabilization solution as a replacement for rock and soil structures. This will reduce costs and allow the project to be completed more quickly.
Reinforced Geomats are available in a variety of thicknesses and sizes. The Multimat P version is designed for a higher load capacity, it has a steel wire woven mesh reinforcement which increases strength, punch resistance and is more cost effective than unreinforced products.
Easy to Install
The 3D Geomat is an environmentally friendly and easy to install green slope protection engineering material. Its special three dimensional structure helps keep seeds, soil and rocks in place and promotes the growth of vegetation. It can replace traditional shotcrete slope protection.
The structure of our 3D Geomat is similar to that of the towel gourd net, which is loose and flexible in texture with 90% space for filling soil, gravel and fine stone. This enables the grass seed to be evenly distributed and defend the embankment from erosion by wind, rain and scattered. It also extends the growing period of the turf, making it a long-lasting protective system for freeway embankment and other slope surfaces.
Compared to ordinary drainage geonet, our product has a higher tensile strength and shear strength and can withstand the heavy pressure of vehicles. It is very suitable for slope surface protection, especially in highway, railway, airport, river and dam.
The 3D Geomat is made of high quality and polymer materials. It is odorless and non-toxic. It can absorb a lot of heat and preserve the ground temperature. It can also reduce the amount of water lost, and help to prevent sand washing away by wind or river wave. It can also replace the concrete, asphalt and block stone as a slope material.
