The introduction of the coir roll to riverbanks and lakesides has enabled for the first time effective erosion solutions using plants as the main ingredient.

With today’s growing expectation that all engineered solutions should reflect the environment they are constructed in the coir roll meets and exceeds all its requirements.

The coir not only is completely bio degradable but also qualifies as a recycled material.

Processed Coconut husk fibres are hydraulically pressed into a polypropylene or coir net bag and tied.

The coir is compacted to a density of approx.

6 -10kg/m or 7 -9 pounds per cubic foot.

The bag is a knotless, rhombic mesh designed for high mechanical applications and is woven in one piece, allowing coir rolls to be mechanically handled by hooking at both ends.

The 2.2m long, 300mm dia coir roll will support an average person standing on it, allowing only slight depression.Bestmann Green Systems provide the base coir roll for Terraqua Environmental Solutions.

The Bestmann roll was the pioneering coir product in the UK and is still widely regarded as the benchmark for quality.

Years of development have resulted in Bestmann Green Systems coir roll being of the correct density to ensure an effective installed lifespan but also a coir matrix loose enough to support rapid root growth through it.
