Product Description: Aqua-Berm Eco-Bags provide a robust and permeable armor solution for protecting vulnerable channels, ditches, and shorelines from erosive forces. Produced from a dense, needle-punched non-woven fabric, these bags are engineered to withstand constant or fluctuating hydraulic pressures. The fabric's high permeability allows for rapid drainage, effectively managing pore water pressure while the durable construction resists abrasion from waterborne sediments. When stacked and keyed into place, they form a flexible, articulated mattress that conforms to subgrade settlement without losing integrity. This makes them an ideal, long-lasting replacement for loose riprap in many applications.
Key Features & Benefits:
Articulated Design: The individual bags work together as a flexible unit, accommodating minor ground movements without catastrophic failure.
High Permeability: Efficiently dissipates hydrostatic pressure from behind the structure, enhancing overall stability.
Abrasion Resistance: The tough non-woven material stands up to the scouring action of flowing water and debris.
Ease of Installation: Simpler and faster to install than hand-placing riprap, reducing labor and equipment costs.
Primary Applications:
Lining for drainage channels, swales, and ditches
Revetment protection for riverbanks and lake shores
Outlet protection structures for culverts and stormwater drains
Scour protection around bridge piers and abutments
