Coco Coir Fiber Rolls

Coco Fiber Roll — a Natural, Flexible and Practical Solution

The coconut husk fibre is woven into a coir blanket that is extremely durable, has multiple uses and is completely environmentally friendly. It’s supplied as a coir blanket roll that is available in various lengths, widths, thicknesses, and densities that are suitable for a wide variety of uses.

Benefits and Uses of Coco Fiber Roll in Queensland

Being considerably stronger than equivalent jute matting versions, coir fiber matting will last much longer — at least two years and possibly up to five years depending on the harshness of the environment where it’s installed. This ensures it lasts long enough to serve its original purpose and, after that, it gradually biodegrades and provides nourishment for plants and the ecosystem.

Coir (Coconut husk for plants) is unpalatable for wildlife and so is unaffected by pests. It protects seeds and new plants, prevents soil from being washed away by heavy rain or flowing water, absorbs and retains water, and reduces evaporation as well as providing good drainage. This is why it's one of the best material for erosion control in Australia and also great for water flood barriers.

The many attributes of coco fiber rolls, its availability in different sizes and weights, and the fact it can be easily cut to the required size and shape makes it a great choice for many applications. These include:

• as a liner for planters and window boxes

• as a mulch mat for gardeners

• in civil engineering and landscaping projects, to provide a suitable environment for revegetation

• to prevent soil erosion, especially on steep slopes or in areas where water flow rates are high or there is excessive rainfall.

For landscaping and stabilisation projects, coir matting is simple to install, even on steep slopes. You need only:

• clear large debris that prevents contact with the soil

• dig a trench at the top and pin the blanket into it before backfilling with soil

• roll the blanket evenly down the slope and pin it in place

• ensure sufficient overlap and pinning when multiple rolls are used.

Any planting schemes will require sufficient soil below the mat and the addition of seed into the soil or plants inserted through slits in the mat. Sufficient irrigation will be necessary until the plants become established.

Everything you need for a Successful Coco Coir Blanket Scheme

In addition to the matting, we supply a variety of pins to ensure the mat is secure even under extreme conditions and for different types of soil. You only need a rubber mallet to put in the pins. After that, it’s straightforward.

Soil erosion can become a big problem and be very costly if it is not addressed. By using coir mats or coir logs, you can save on time and money by protecting the area in question. So, whether it’s a large scale landscaping project or a simple planting scheme, coir matting is the natural solution.
