PROPEX Scourlok

PROPEX^® Scourlok^® is a robust Engineered Bank Stabilization System designed to resist extreme hydraulic stresses and protect shorelines and embankments while promoting vegetation. It was developed for applications that need below water scour protection in addition to slope stabilization and erosion control provided by PROPEX Armormax^® and PROPEX Pyramat^® Engineered Earth Armoring Solutions.

Key points:

Enhances water quality by increasing pollutant and nutrient removal.
Yields a vegetated solution that is more aesthetically pleasing than traditional hard armoring solutions.
Resists extreme hydraulic stresses, protecting vegetated an un-vegetated shoreline applications.
Can be installed below or above water to fully armor the entire shoreline.
Units can easily be connected and contoured to accommodate projects of any size.
Can be combined with other PROPEX Engineered Earth Armoring Solutions such as Armormax to optimize design.
Units can be filled with in-situ soils, eliminating the cost of importing fill material to a jobsite.
Units ship pre-assembled for fast and easy installation, reducing overall installation costs.

Harvey Ditch erosion protection with PROPEX

BKDD used PROPEX Scourlok for durable, environmentally-friendly erosion protection along a drainage channel in Texas, replacing gabion baskets with a long-lasting solution.

Restoring stream bank while promoting vegetation

Since the completion of the project, the stream has naturally restored itself to its original channel depth.

Stabilizing the Des Moines River with PROPEX

The west fork of the Des Moines River in Palo Alto County, had experienced years of erosion and flooding. From 2006 to 2019, the riverbank had receded up to 215 feet in the middle of the bend.
