BioND-TRMTM 100

Coir -Synthetic Turf Reinforcement Mat (TRM)

Environmentally friendly permanent TRM.  Excellent for TRM for tidal areas

 

RoLanka's BioND-TRMTM 100 is woven from machine twisted bristle coir twine that is reinforced with two UV stabilized polypropylene strands in the middle blanket is available in 6.56'x83' = 60 SY/roll (2m x 25m = 50 m2/roll) size. Unlike the permanent geogrids, the reinforced coir twines in BioND-TRM move independently, thus create no entrapment danger to wildlife. Aesthetically pleasing application.

BioND-TRM 100 blanket is available in 6.56'x165'= 120 SY/roll (2m x 50m =100 m2/roll), 9.84'x165' = 180 SY/roll  (3m x 50m =150 m2/roll) roll sizes.

Upon biodegradation of coir fiber the synthetic net structure will remain and reinforce the roots.

     

Advantages

  • Immediately after installation when no vegetation is present, the mat provides higher erosion resistance.

  • Coir fibers protect synthetic mat structure from UV degradation.

  • Intersecting strands move independently, eliminating wildlife entrapment

  • Heavier weight. Higher stability upon installation.

  • Open weave helps to plant through the blanket without cutting it.

  • Provide long-term support for soil layers in fabric wrapped soil bioengineering applications.

 

   

Aesthetically pleasing, wildlife safe turf reinforcement can be achieved with the BioND-TRM coir-synthetic permanent turf reinforcement mat. This innovative improvement further extends the use of coir in brackish water environments and for streambank restoration using a coir fabric encapsulated soil layer technique where complete disintegration of the main fabric is not favorable. Our permanent synthetic mat in BioND-TRM is a woven structure with moveable intersecting points and creates no entrapment danger to wildlife.

 

     
 

General Specifications

This is to certify that the BioND-TRM 100, woven coir-synthetic turf reinforcement mat, is woven from machine twisted reinforced coir twines made of bristle coir obtained from cured coconut husks.  Each twine in the mat is reinforced with two ultra violet stabilized polypropylene strands in the middle.  BioND-TRM 100 blankets are manufactured to conform to the following physical properties:
