15 February 2011 – East Coast Erosion Control, a global supplier of rolled erosion control products, hydromulches and turf reinforcement mats (TRMs), announces its newest offering: T-RECS™ (Turf Reinforcement Erosion Control Solution). Designed to provide extremely durable erosion control more quickly and at a more affordable price, the T-RECS™ system utilizes a revolutionary, three-dimensional, woven polypropylene, geotextile TRM structure that enables the user significant flexibility in installation without sacrificing performance.
“The unique structure of the T-RECS™ product allows it to be surface applied or soil filled,” says Diane Hitt, Managing Director for East Coast Erosion Control. “It’s received very positive feedback and demonstrated great performance. We’re excited now to unveil it fully to the industry as a long-term vegetation-promoting and protecting solution, as an alternative to hard armor products, and as a LEED®-ready material.”
The patent-pending dome shape offers greater surface coverage and improved adherence to soil subgrades, which promotes faster vegetation establishment and stronger root systems. And the durability of the T-RECS™ system offers a long-needed, natural-looking alternative to hard armor erosion control for challenging slopes, high-flow channels, shorelines exposed to wave action, and more.
Initial surveys have shown that the T-RECS™ system costs approximately 33% less than competitive products, and with vegetation growing quickly and lasting the product protects both sites and budgets. Made in the USA, T-RECS™ meets rigorous industry standards such as the Type 5A, 5B, and 5C specifications established by the Erosion Control Technology Council (ECTC) and FP-03 Section 713.18 of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
