Regional Information
Product specifications and applications by region
Regional Overview
In British Columbia, Geo Mods Coir Mat is widely used for erosion control in both civil engineering and environmental projects. Its high tensile strength and shear stress resistance make it ideal for steep slopes and high-velocity water flows prevalent in BC's mountainous terrain.
Notable Projects
Project 1
Trans-Canada Highway Erosion Control
Project 2
Vancouver Island Mine Reclamation
Climate Considerations
The Coir Mat performs well in BC's varying climate, from cold winters to hot summers. It provides excellent erosion control even in areas with heavy rainfall or snowmelt.
Industry Applications
Mining
In BC's mining sector, the Coir Mat is used for tailings management and mine reclamation, helping to stabilize soils and prevent erosion.
Transportation
For transportation projects, the Coir Mat is used along highways, railways, and construction sites to prevent soil erosion and sediment runoff.
Environmental
In environmental projects, it's used for stream bank restoration, wetland construction, and slope stabilization, promoting vegetation growth and ecosystem restoration.
Regional Overview
In Alberta, Geo Mods Coir Mat is primarily used in the oil & gas industry for erosion control and land reclamation. It's also used in mining and transportation projects across the province.
Notable Projects
Project 1
Athabasca Oil Sands Land Reclamation
Project 2
Alberta Highway 63 Erosion Control
Climate Considerations
The Coir Mat is designed to withstand Alberta's harsh climate, from freezing winters to hot, dry summers. Its durability allows it to provide effective erosion control during spring breakups and winter construction.
Industry Applications
Oil And Gas
In the oil & gas sector, the Coir Mat is used for land reclamation after oil sands extraction, preventing erosion and promoting vegetation growth.
Mining
For mining operations, the Coir Mat helps control erosion in tailings ponds and reclamation areas.
Transportation
In transportation, it's used along highways and construction sites, particularly in areas with loose soils and high wind speeds, to prevent soil erosion.
