4 ft x 112.5 ft Erosion Control Blankets

This product line is offered in a standard 4 ft x 112.5 ft roll size, providing 450 square feet of coverage per roll. This format is well-suited for slope and channel applications, making it easy to handle and install across a variety of project scales and terrain conditions.

Lifespan depends on the fiber type. Straw blankets biodegrade in approximately 3 months, wood fiber blankets last up to 12–24 months, and coconut fiber blankets last 2–3 years. Selecting the correct longevity tier ensures erosion protection persists until vegetation is fully established on the site.

Erosion control blankets in this line are made from natural fibers — straw, wood excelsior, or coconut fiber — held together by polyester (photodegradable) or cotton/rayon (biodegradable) stitching. Netting options include plastic UV-stabilized or natural fiber weaved nets, depending on project requirements and environmental considerations.

Single-netted blankets are designed for slopes up to 3:1, while double-netted blankets can handle steeper slopes up to 1:1. For highly erosive or steep embankments, double-netted wood excelsior or coconut fiber blankets are recommended to ensure adequate anchoring and soil protection during vegetation establishment.

Yes, the Curlex erosion control blankets available through Coleman Moore Company are NPDES-compliant solutions. This makes them suitable for use on regulated construction sites where stormwater management and erosion control plans must meet federal and state permit requirements, including projects overseen by Iowa DNR or DOT.

Yes, these blankets are designed for use in intermittent and low-flow channels, ditches, riverbanks, and levees. They protect against soil mobilization and scour while allowing vegetation to establish. For channel applications, double-netted blankets are recommended to resist displacement from water flow and maintain consistent ground contact.
