Scour and Erosion Control Philippines

B&G Offers Scour and Erosion Control Solutions in The Philippines

​

Erosion Control in the Philippines is MUCH more than just coco blankets and coco geotextiles.

Our EcoTex Erosion Control Blankets (ECB) and Turf Reinforcement Mattresses (TRM) are designed and installed to be tough, long lasting and to readily green-up the slope, allowing grasses (local species, bamboo), trees and shrubs, vines and creepers to grow and thrive.

Correct installation is vital, and we have the expert team to do that, or train-up your labor. Each project is carefully planned then coordinated to ensure overlaps are minimized. 

The Erosion Control System must be firmly anchored to the slope face, overlapped and designed to maintain intimate contact with the slope, surface, or soil. Then the ECB or TRM can reinforce the slope against downward soil and vegetation movement and also break-up heavy rainfall energy and thus increase down-slope drainage.

B&G Erosion Control GeoSynthetics are made from high tensile and chemical resistant polyester (PET), polypropylene (PP), and polyethylene (PE), and vary in thickness, allowing for soil-filling or hydroseeding.

The strength and performance of B&G's EcoTex ECB's and TRM's is far superior to coco blankets.

EcoTex ECB's and TRM's are also excellent with drainage channels, creeks, rivers, and for the coastline protection. When used as a channel lining, the water is actively filtered making discharges cleaner. The channel greens-up, too, and our anchorage systems means TRM's can replace up to 1000mm thickness of rock, concrete, or rip-rap. Our ECB's are cheaper and far more effective than coco geotextiles and come in wide widths and come in long rolls, for coverage savings. Installation can be done under water.

Erosion Control must be geotechnically designed correctly and that is our first step with you. Many projects will require several types of ECB or TRM, depending on the slope angle and length.

We aim to replace rip-rap, concrete, and other 'hard armor' with greener solutions that are far superior and effective. Tried-and-tested geosolutions come with the best quality, the best installation, and the best labor.

Scour control and protection is best done with our high strength Hi-Ten Geotextiles or our EcoTex ECB/TRM Systems. Geotextiles like this are flexible and allow for some movement that restricts undermining of soils by running water.
