Erosion Control and Soil Stabilization Turf Reinforcement Mats (TRM)
Landlok Turf Reinforcement Mats (TRM)

Reinforcement is the only way vegetated channels and slopes can stand up to stormwater. The turf reinforcement mats (TRMs) from CONTECH give you two key advantages. First, their unique fiber shape and 3-D pattern create a thick matrix of voids that trap seed, soil and water in place for quicker, thicker vegetation growth. Then, they provide additional reinforcement that doubles your vegetation’s natural erosion protection abilities. Unlike ECBs, these flexible, 3-D reinforcement systems remain a permanent part of your application,anchoring mature plants to the soil for superior, long-term erosion resistance.

Applications include:

  • Slopes
  • Channels
  • Banks
Product Highlights: Turf Reinforcement Mats (TRM)

1st Generation Landlok® TRMs Features and benefits:

  • Permanent turf reinforcement enhances vegetation's natural ability to filter soil particles and prevent soil loss during storm events
  • 100% synthetic and UV-stabilized components
  • X3 fiber technology provides up to 40% greater surface area to protect emerging seedings and sediment retention
  • Aesthetically pleasing
  • Superior product testing and performance
  • Easy installation - no heavy equipment required


2nd Generation Landlok® Woven TRMs Features and benefits:
All the features and benefits of first generation Landlok TRMs, plus:
  • Unique, patented matrix of pyramids formed with X3 fibers that gridlocks soil in place under high-flow conditions
  • 3-D woven material provides superior tensile strength for loading and/or survivability requirements
  • Greater flexibility to maintain intimate contact with subgrade, resulting in rapid seeding emergence and minimal soil loss
  • Completely interconnected yarns that provide superior UV resistance throughout the TRM
  • A combination of superior characteristics for long-term performance and a longer design life than first generation Landlok TRMs
