GREEN ARMOR

PRODUCTDESCRIPTION

T h e G R E E N A R M O R ®Process is characterised by theapplication of a 3-dimensionalGeo-Mat, as defined in thenorm NF EN ISO 10318 ,combined with a seedingprocess using a ‘projected fibremembrane’ like EURO-MATFGM-ET

EURO-MAT FGM-ET i s ablended mulch product, readyto use, 100% bio-degradable,and is made of “PREMIUM”vegetable fibres (NFU code:44-4551) with the addition ofstabilizing agents, germinationa c t i v a t o r s a n d g r o w t henhancers.

T h e 3 D G e o - M a t i s n o tbiodegradable and is made ofdurable , UV-stabi l i zed,thermally fused polyamide(PA6) filaments.

ACTION FIELDSThe GREEN ARMOR ® Process is characterised by a quick establishment of a vegetable and durablyreinforced solution for areas prone to important leaching by run-off water or strong currents and wherea simple vegetation cover would be insufficient.

3-Dimensional Reinforced Anti-Erosion Protection for the Long Term :The synergetic combination of a 3D GeoMat together with the projected fibre matrix or FlexibleGrowth Medium EURO-MAT FGM-ET allows for the establishment of a long-term anti-erosionprotection against wind and water erosion. This process provides double protection and soil-stabilisation thanks to the GeoMat’s action and the accelerated intertwining of roots through thenylon filaments.

Accelerates Germination:Its water retention capacity allows the seeds and seedlings to develop in a “controlled”environment where it concerns temperature and hydro stress, as temperature peaks are flattedout and evaporation/transpiration is being limited. The presence of germination activators andgrowth enhancers allows for quick establishment of the green cover.

Resistance and Structural Integrity:The 3-D GeoMat is made of intertwined three-dimensional polyamide (PA6) filaments. In order toimprove the cohesion of the GeoMat, all filaments are soldered at each contact point. ThisGeoMat provides a homogeneous reinforcement that is not bio-degradable, UV resistant andcrush and shear resistant.
