METHOD OF AND TURF PRODUCT FOR EROSION CONTROL

摘要

A turf product (60) comprising matting of a fibrous material (40) in association with a reinforcing mesh (30) to give directional stability thereto, and turf located above the matting and mesh with its root mass (41) passing in use therethrough into the ground (50). There is disclosed a method of manufacturing such a turf product which includes the provision of an impervious layer below the turf product while the turf is growing such that the turf roots tend to mat above this layer. A method whereby the turf product is used to cover an underlying surface is also disclosed. An overlying convoluted or wavy mesh layer (31) may also be positioned within fibrous material (40).
