Nicospan vertical bank protection
Nicospan is a prefabricated, double-weave revetment fabric made from strong, UV-stabilised monofilament yarns, heat-sealed to form a series of open pockets so that 75 or 100mmø timber posts can be installed. Nicospan is designed specifically for vertical bank protection at the water’s edge and is ideal where access to the watercourse is limited- PRODUCT

Concrete filled bagwork for revetments
SoluForm concrete filled bagwork can be used to build revetments. The bags are simple to use and can be placed by hand, either pre-soaked or hydrated in situ. The adaptable nature of the system allows for construction in various different situations, letting personnel on site work around obstacles and install in hard-to-access areas
CoirLog biodegradable riverbank erosion control
CoirLogs are biodegradable, coconut fibre bio-rolls. The dense coir fibre CoirLog rolls dissipate wave energy, protect against water scour, and retain the bank while plants develop
CoirPallet erosion control substrates
CoirPallets are biodegradable, coconut fibre mattress substrates that work in harmony with nature, to protect and support banks, and shorelines, while promoting restoration of wetland environments
Armorflex concrete block revetment system
Armorflex is a precast concrete erosion control system composed of interlocking mats in both cellular and solid block formats. Its double-tapered block design increases interlock performance, allowing for flexible placement and resilience against hydraulic forces

Ankalok concrete revetments
Ankalok is a precast concrete revetment block system for erosion control, using a unique double anchor head shape to secure each unit through full six-point interlock. Tapered sides support curved placement and enhance flexibility on varied terrain

Dycel concrete revetments
Dycel is a fully interlocking precast concrete revetment system used to protect embankments from erosion above and below water level. Its cellular structure enables infill with soil or aggregate, allowing for vegetative growth or increased stability depending on the application: cellular units enable environmental integration by allowing

Armorloc concrete block revetment system
Armorloc is a dry-laid concrete revetment system designed for erosion control on slopes, channels, and embankments. Interlocking tapered units create a stable open-cell structure that supports vegetation and adapts to ground contours: tapered sides allow interlock in all directions, enhancing resistance to hydraulic and gravitational forces

Dry and pre-established coir rolls
Visit site
Coir rolls are a sustainable and cost effective solution for establishing vegetation in wetland habitats. They can be installed at a fraction of the cost of hard engineering solutions and have the added benefit of improving biodiversity and wildlife habitats through aesthetic marginal planting. Coir logs provide erosion control by dissipating wave- PRODUCT
