Excelsior for Erosion Control

Rolled Erosion Control Products

Excelsior Erosion Control Products are made with uniformly distributed 100% Aspen wood excelsior and 1 or 2 polypropylene nets. The nets are securely sewn together with degradable thread. This rolled erosion control product is designed to stabilize areas with moderate erosion or low flows. For example, shorelines and hillsides. The wood excelsior fibers are proficient at absorbing water and offer a tough, biodegradable matrix to protect against wind. As a result, they offer premium sediment control to the earth and infant vegetation beneath. Ferguson Waterworks also stocks straw, jute, and coconut erosion control products.

For shipping, the tightly compressed blankets are wrapped and include a product label, code, and installation guide. Furthermore, the blankets are palletized for easy transportation.
