Pyramat - Turf Reinforcement Mats 

Pyramat is a turf reinforcement mat that is used for permanent erosion control on steep slopes, banks and vegetated waterways. Pyramats are made from woven polypropylene geotextile that is configured into pyramid-like projections. These TRMS have a high interlock and reinforcement capacity that helps stabilize soil and promote vegetation.

The Summary Of A Project:

The city needed a solution for permanent protection for an eroding roadway drainage channel fronting the commercial developments along Bell Road in Scottsdale, AZ. Rip rap and concrete were the most unpopular choices and went beyond the city's budget. Propex worked with Gannett Fleming using the 75 TRM instead to reinforce the native vegetation and provide a UV stabilized, the permanent lining is able to withstand heavy flows from their desert monsoons.

Green Highlights:

It increases vegetation and controls erosion. It's engineered to lock seeds and soil in place for fast root development for long-term vegetation. The result is a natural-looking appearance versus a colorless rock rip rap or concrete. It's an excellent choice for living shorelines. Using a High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats will maintain cooler temperatures of water than a standard hard armoring alternative. Will increase water temperatures which can impact waters and aquatic life.

The  manufacturing facility is ISO 14001 certified and recognizes Propex as actively measuring the environmental impact and is continuously looking for other ways to improve our green commitment.

Green Facts:

The World Resources Institute (WSI) and World Business Council for Sustainable Development's Greenhouse Gas Protocol (WBCSD) continually works with companies to create standards that will measure, report, manage, and reduce carbon emissions.

What is the Difference Between Engineered Plastic and Single-Use Plastic?

Engineered plastic, like these mats, are stabilized to prevent deterioration and to withstand UV and other environmental exposures. Single-use plastics are not stabilized and will start to break down immediately.

How Long Will PROPEX's Last?

HPTRMs or High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats are created plastics that are developed to last a long time or even permanently. The 75 has a lifespan of 75 years when exposed to UV rays. On the other hand, if it is covered with vegetation, it's functional longevity can last a much longer period of time.

Do Engineered Plastics Drain When Exposed To Water?

Our Propex erosion control products are made from polypropylene which contains no leachable components unlike single-use plastic made from various non-stabilized polymers that will break down into microplastics and drain harmful chemicals. The EPA has identified High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mats, like these, are the Best Management Practice for improving the quality of water because it promotes infiltration of water back into the ground table and filters out sediments and pollutants.

How Does the Manufacturing of PROPEX Impact The Environment?

In Ringgold, GA, our facility is ISO 14001 certified. The international certification recognizes that this product is actively measuring the environmental impact and is constantly looking for ways to improve its process. We continually improve this product by repalletizing former extruded polypropylene so it can be recycled into a new product and by installing motion sensor lights in the plant to decrease energy consumption.

Pyramat Used to Promote Vegetation

Case Study - The Rehabilitation Of Woodley Channel In California

Los Angeles County in California needed to repair Woodley Channel after it was seriously damaged by large storms and flooding. LADPW along with the county wanted to re-establish vegetation in the channel which originally used riprap for protecting against erosion.

The previous rock riprap was replaced with 15,000 square yards of PYRAMAT® 75 High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat (HPTRM). PYRAMAT® 75 costs a lot less than rock and offers up to 75 years of design life, even when exposed directly to sunlight. Its woven construction was designed to lock in seeds and establish reinforcement to the roots of native vegetation.

On top of being more cost-effective than rock, PYRAMAT® is environmentally friendly. It removes pollutants from the waterways with vegetation, reduces thermal pollution, and decreases greenhouse gases associated with mining, hauling, and placing of rock riprap. High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat, like PYRAMAT® 75, has been recognized by the EPA, (Environmental Protection Agency,) as a Best Management Practice (BMP) for improving the quality of groundwater. PYRAMAT® is the only High-Performance Turf Reinforcement Mat (HPTRM) to have its carbon footprint verified by a third-party organization. Its carbon impact is 30 times less than rock riprap and other hard protection solutions.

For more than 10 years, Woodley Channel is stable with no signs of erosion. Vegetation is thriving, offering a natural, aesthetically pleasing outcome.
