This is the one that started it all - the erosion control blanket that literally defined an industry: Curlex I. Born in 1963, Curlex I continues to set the standard for a majority of erosion control blanket requirements. A specific cut of Great Lakes Aspen curled wood excelsior with 80% six-inch fibers or greater fiber length. It shall be of consistent thickness, with fibers evenly distributed throughout the entire area of the blanket. The top of each blanket shall be covered with photodegradable or biodegradable netting. Material is naturally seed free and does not contain chemical additives.
Curlex blankets consist of unique softly barbed, interlocking, curled, Aspen excelsior fibers. They are naturally seed free. Curlex blankets are available with a variety of environmentally sensitive and/or stronger netting types to match job site requirements. We offer a green color-coded plastic netting for applications requiring UV resistance, strength, and longevity.
