SOLCOMAT:CONCRETE BLOCK MATTRESS FOR SLOPE PROTECTION 
         AND EROSION CONTROL:Labor-saving & Economical method

FEATURES OF SOLCOMAT SYSTEM

  1. Suitable for erosion control

    It protects the surface of soil with combination of concrete blocks and filter cloth.

  2. Excellent in water permeability

    Water comes from the ground surface is evenly absorbed into the lower soil through the opening of each block and filter cloth. On the other hand, the water behind the slope comes out from the surface of SOLCOMATTM through filter cloth and the opening of blocks. Besides the soil is protected against flowing out with the mesh of filter cloth, which reduces the water pressure inside the soil and prevent slope from collapse. ( Suitable places : Water's edge,Water-front where water level changes, the places with spring water and etc.)

    Excellent in water permeability

  3. Flexibility of the filter cloth

    The filter cloth used for SOLCOMATTM is so flexible that it fit in to the ground with time. ( Suitable places : Erosive Scouring slopes, soft ground at risk from differential settlement and etc.)

    Flexibility of the filter cloth

  4. It can keep vegetation and helping plants regrow

    Plants can regrow out of the opening of blocks through the filter cloth. The roots help unite the mat and soil, which secures protection effect. Thick plants also play a roll as protector for erosion by themselves. As a result, beauty of nature can be kept with vegetation unlike conventional concrete block methods. ( Suitable places : Riverbanks, parks, recreational areas and etc.)

  5. Fast and Easy installation work

    It is manufactured at factory in customized length, and can be installed in a short time using mechanical power (crane). No special technician is necessary to install SOLCOMATTM . ( Suitable places : Large areas, emergency restoration and etc.)

  6. Underwater work is available
