Shoreline protection and stabilization

North America is losing soil faster than the natural replenishment rate due to erosion¹. This means that valuable land including residential, commercial and agricultural property is being lost every year. Wind, rainfall, currents and waves are all natural factors that cause erosion and shoreline loss. Our innovative PROPEX^® erosion control solutions stabilize earth and enable vegetative growth, one of the most effective ways to prevent erosion and sediment runoff from disturbed land. Additionally, our GEOTUBE^® marine technologies are a proven, cost-effective method for a variety of shoreline protection and marine structure projects. Developed using input from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, this technology has been used to create sand dune cores, wetland habitats, jetties, dikes, groins and underwater structures. In these applications, GEOTUBE units provide permeable, mass-gravity structures that are durable and resistant to erosion.
