E-Rosion

E Rosion by Ecoflex International

The Ecoflex E Rosion System is a patented system that uses recycled materials to produce engineer designed and certified structures for the control of water erosion.

E Rosion projects are constructed using a unique adaptable container - The Ecoflex Unit. Derived from quality controlled recycled tyres, this unit uses the high tensile strength of a tyre to form an incredibly strong containment device. This container becomes a circular, permeable unit that can be combined in various cellular arrangements to perform as a durable barrier against erosion much as a conventional rock mattress would, but at reduced cost and with improved performance and durability.

Engineering Properties of the E Rosion System

Speed and ease of construction delivers low cost outcomes.

Permeable rock fill acts as an energy dissipater

Durability of structure is well in excess of most stringent design requirements

Easy to dismantle remove and reuse

Proven safe and beneficial to the environment

Has been designed for water velocities of up to 6 m/s

The E Rosion System is suitable for:

Drainage Channels & Culverts, Scour Protection Beneath Bridges, Mines Roads, Road & Rail Embankments, Flood Plains & Water Courses, Batter Protection, Permanent or Temporary Works
