Turf Reinforcement Mat (GS 50 TRM)
GreenSolutions™ GS 50 TRM is a machine stitched Heavy-Duty Polypropylene Turf Reinforcement Mat utilized for protection of shorelines, channels, and extreme slopes. GS 50 is comprised of an evenly distributed matrix of U.V. stabilized polypropylene/synthetic fibers that are stitch-bonded between two layers of biaxially oriented Heavy-Duty polypropylene netting. The fiber and netting components are stitched on 1.5” centers using a polypropylene thread. All components used to manufacture GS 50 are non-biodegradable and are resistant to U.V. and chemical degradation.
GS 50 is designed to achieve a functional longevity greater than 3 years, in order for to provide for sufficient vegetation establishment.GS 50 offers both long-term and immediate protection to shorelines, channels, and extreme slopes. The open area of GS 50 allows for soil filling and further seed germination, which in time creates a matrix of soil, roots, and vegetation that will protect your project for years to come.
