Erosion Control-Shorelines, Channels, Steep Slopes-

Enkamat R45-

Shoreline Stabilization and Erosion Control Requires a High-Performance Geosynthetic

Enkamat® R45 is a unitized high-performance geosynthetic that incorporates a high tenacity polyester geogrid within the entangled filaments of the 3-dimensional turf reinforcement mat (TRM). The combination of a high-strength tensile member for reinforcement at low strains and the TRM for root entanglement provides unique properties for erosion control applications along shorelines, in channels, steep slopes and as a grip layer under vegetated veneers. Enkamat R45 is manufactured from nylon and polyester to eliminate the buoyancy factor associated with submerged conditions. Enkamat R45 replaces Enkamat S - the original High Performance TRM

 Enkamat R45 Recommended Applications

 Permanent erosion control for shorelines and green (vegetated) channels with expected shear stresses ≤ 20 psf and surficial stability for steep slopes (≤ 0.5H:1V).

 Support and enhance hydraulic and agronomic performance of ecosystem plants.

 Channel lining, shoreline or slope protection for erosion control applications with extreme hydraulic forces or where high modulus, high tensile strength is required.
