Product Advantage


Product Advantage

High-denier raw materials, stable structure 

Made from 200-500D high-denier long fibers and manufactured through a needling process, with precise weight control of 80-150g/㎡. The denier of the raw materials is 3-5 times higher than ordinary nonwoven fabrics, with tightly intertwined fibers forming a stable skeleton structure. This effectively supports grass seeds, seedlings, and topsoil, preventing deformation of the vegetative mat during transport or installation, which is the core advantage of long-fiber, high-denier nonwoven fabric for vegetative mat backings. 


Exceptional mechanical performance, damage-resistant and durable 

Longitudinal tensile strength ≥ 15kN/m, transverse tensile strength ≥ 12kN/m, tear resistance ≥ 0.8kN, far exceeding the industry average standard (tensile strength ≥ 10kN/m). On slopes with gradients ≤ 45°, it can withstand forces from rain erosion and soil displacement, providing long-term use without risk of breakage, ensuring the engineering stability of ecological restoration vegetative mats. 


High breathability and water permeability, suitable for plant growth 

The porosity is controlled at 30%-40% through special processes, with an air permeability ≥ 1000L/(㎡·s) and water permeability ≥ 500mL/(cm²·h). This allows rainwater to quickly infiltrate the soil, preventing surface water runoff, and provides sufficient oxygen for plant roots, promoting deep rooting. It addresses the traditional backing issues of "poor breathability and easy root decay," increasing ecological restoration efficiency by 40%. 


Controllable degradation, environmentally friendly 

Some models use modified degradable long fibers with added biodegradable agents, allowing degradation cycles to be precisely controlled within 1-3 years. Once vegetation is established (coverage ≥ 80%) and soil structure is stable, the backing naturally degrades into organic matter, leaving no environmental residue. Compared to non-degradable materials, it reduces post-project cleanup costs and meets the green development requirements of ecological restoration. 


Broad adaptability, flexible scenarios 

Suitable for temperature ranges of -30℃ to 60℃, resistant to acid and alkali corrosion (stable performance in pH 3-11 environments), and can be used for slope greening, river management, mine rehabilitation, and other ecological restoration scenarios. Custom widths (1-4m) and lengths (50-100m per roll) are supported to meet various construction needs, reduce cutting waste, and improve installation efficiency. 


Anti-aging and puncture-resistant, long service life 

Added UV stabilizers for ultraviolet resistance, with 85% or more retention of tensile strength after 500h xenon lamp aging tests, allowing it to withstand strong outdoor UV exposure. The surface is reinforced for puncture resistance ≥ 200N, preventing damage from soil gravel and plant roots, ensuring the backing continues to function effectively throughout the ecological restoration cycle (2-5 years).

Product Uses


Product Uses

Highway/Railway Slope Greening

Applied to slopes (≤45°) along highways and railways. Its high tensile strength resists soil erosion from rain and vehicle-induced wind. The permeable structure allows grass seeds to germinate, quickly forming a vegetation cover to stabilize slopes and reduce maintenance costs.


River/Lake Bank Ecological Restoration

Used for bank protection of rivers and lakes. It tolerates wet environments (pH 3-11) and prevents sediment loss. The breathable base supports aquatic plants’ root growth, improving water quality and restoring the riparian ecosystem without blocking water circulation.


Mine Reclamation

Suitable for abandoned mine sites with poor soil. The nonwoven base fixes loose soil, retains moisture for seed growth, and (if degradable) breaks down naturally after 1-3 years. It accelerates vegetation recovery, reducing heavy metal runoff.


Landfill Slope Governance

Layed on landfill slopes to cover waste and control dust. Its puncture resistance (≥200N) withstands debris damage. The material’s durability (5-8 years for non-degradable type) ensures long-term slope stability while aiding vegetation establishment to mask the landfill.



FAQ


FAQ


Q1: How to choose between degradable and non-degradable types?
A: Choose degradable (1-3 years) for short-term projects (e.g., mine reclamation) where vegetation matures fast. Opt for non-degradable (5-8 years) for long-term stability (e.g., highway slopes) to avoid frequent replacement.


Q2: Can it work on slopes steeper than 45°?
A: It’s not recommended. Its tensile strength (≥15kN/m) works best on slopes ≤45°. Steeper slopes may exceed its load capacity, leading to soil displacement and base damage.


Q3: Does it need extra waterproofing in wet areas?
A: No. Its permeable structure (≥500mL/(cm²·h)) drains water while retaining soil. It tolerates wet environments (pH 3-11), so extra waterproofing is unnecessary and may block root oxygen supply.


Q4: How long does it take for vegetation to cover after laying?
A: With proper moisture and temperature, grass seeds germinate in 7-14 days. The base’s breathability aids growth, and full vegetation cover (≥80%) is usually achieved in 2-3 months, depending on the plant type.
