SoluForm's concrete filled bagwork can be used for erosion control and scour protection.

Highly adaptable technology can be used for installation both above and below the waterline due to two different kinds of bagwork.

There is usually no need to dewater a watercourse for installation or provide costly plant hire to an area where access is an issue.

The bags are hydrated in situ to easily rebuild around exposed banks.

Individual bags weigh 20kg and can be handled and installed by one person.

Due to biodegradable linings they have no impact on surrounding nature and ecology.

Bags are pinned with purposed made u shaped rebar that create a path to let water in while ensuring no cement fines escape to affect local ecology.
