5. Futerra – Erosion Control/Revegetation Blanket or Equivalent:

Futerra is a lightweight, nonwoven erosion control/revegetation blanket comprised primarily of virgin wood fiber. Futerra is manufactured by blending thermal mechanically-defribrated wood fiber with a small percentage of recycled synthetic fibers and forming them into a drape able blanket. An accelerated photodegradable polypropylene netting is laminated to the surface of the blanket. Futerra completely degrades on-site as grass grows through the blanket fibers.

The wood fibers biodegrade adding organic material to the soil surface. Futerra has been engineered to significantly reduce soil erosion and migration of the underlying seed bed, while enhancing seed germination and growth. Futerra is dyed a natural turf green color to provide a temporary finished appearance until vegetation is established. It is also available undyed, in a nature wood color.

Futerra shall be used for temporary erosion and sediment control in areas in which the soil has been prepared and seeded. The mat shall perform immediate erosion control with a dimensional matrix that is capable of both resisting and absorbing the full kinetic energy from raindrop impact and preventing the associated disruption of underlying soil particles.

The matrix of the mat shall possess a rate of saturation that reduces the velocity of water run-off. Upon saturation, the mat shall mold and bond to the soil surface preventing water flow from channeling under the mat’s surface and directing excessive flow over the mat’s surface. The bonding process is enhanced by immediately irrigating the blanket surface following installation.

Rolls shall be available in two different colors, Color Match Green & Natural Wood.

40" wide x 135' long Coverage area 50 sq. yds.

82" wide x 135' long Coverage area 102.5 sq. yds.

Price bid per 40", and 82" Rolls, in the two colors listed above.

6 Staples:

Staples are also needed to secure to ground. Price bid per 1000/box.
