Biodegradable Coir Log / Fiber Rolls

All-Natural Erosion Control for Restoration Projects

Coconut coir logs are easy to use, install and maintain. We offer budget-friendly pricing and delivery. Our coir fiber rolls are a favorite for use in stabilizing riverbanks, hills, shorelines, and other areas prone to erosion.

 

Natural erosion control fiber rolls are also often used in environmentally sensitive areas, since they are fully biodegradable and require no removal. Coconut coir logs are great for restoration projects, construction sites, and embankment areas in need of stabilization.

 

Note: Coir, like many products, is sourced from overseas. During these challenging times, due to trouble with supply and getting the products through the port systems, many products are less available. When they are available, they are more expensive. Coir is one of the products affected this way, across the entire industry. However, there are alternatives. As a practical and affordable alternative to coir logs or wattle, you might consider sediment filter logs. They are biodegradable, environmentally friendly, and perform in all the same ways that coir log and wattle do. Please see Sediment Filter Logs (pdf). Call us for pricing or with questions.

Standard Density Coir Fiber Logs

These are the industry standard for use in average conditions and at a price point that's budget friendly. 100% Biodegradable, the Standard Density Coir Fiber Logs are made of 100% coir encased in a 2"x2" coir netting. Coir Fiber Logs promote a natural solution to erosion control and slope stabilization, while creating an environment that supports vegetative growth for long term erosion control as the coir eventually biodegrades.

High Density Coir Logs

High density coir logs are recommended for use on rigorous terrain, areas exposed to high flow or harsh environmental conditions. They are also a reliable erosion control solution for streambanks and lakeshores, as well as for slope stabilization. Manufactured with 100% coir fibers encased in a rhombic coir netting, these high-density coir fiber logs are known for solid performance in the most demanding situations and for the longest duration in the field.

Pre-Drilled Coir Logs

Amazingly convenient, the installation of these coir fiber logs is a snap. They use fewer stakes; simply secure them with stakes through the pre-drilled slots in the logs. The slots can also be used for planting seedlings. The slots are approximately 2 feet apart. Pre-Drilled Coir Fiber Logs are available in standard or high-density options and a variety of sizes.

When it comes to stabilizing environmentally sensitive areas, growing vegetation and enriching the soil and ecosystem, you can't go wrong with coconut fiber coir logs.


Coir Log Installation and Placement

When using coconut coir logs for slope stabilization, wetland stabilization and revegetation, consider placing them in the following areas.


  • Areas with Flowing Water: Place coconut coir logs directly onto a bank, securing new channel alignment and retaining fill material.
  • Standing Water: Place coconut coir logs offshore to break waves and encourage sedimentation. Use the coir logs for wetland stabilization or along lake shores and small ponds to control erosion.

Installing coconut coir logs requires different steps and in-depth knowledge that we can help you obtain. Other coconut coir products include wattles, logs, and mats that are recommended for erosion control.
