Virmat L: applications

  • Slopes of significant height: well-suited for application on notably high slopes, where erosion control and slope stabilisation are critical to prevent soil loss and promote safety.
  • Steep slopes: quick vegetation results in erosion control even on slopes up to 55°, surpassing traditional methods.
  • Places exposed to erosion caused by water and wind.
  • Banks and beds of streams: Virmat L helps stabilise areas prone to erosion due to water flow by supporting vegetation growth.
  • Very friable slopes: stabilise slopes that easily crumble or break apart. Virmat L ensures that slopes maintain structure over time.
  • Poor soils: areas with nutrient-poor soils benefit from Virmat L’s preseeded biotextile and fertiliser, which enhance soil quality and support vegetation growth.
  • Poorly irrigated slopes: it is effective on slopes that receive insufficient irrigation, as it helps retain moisture, providing a conducive environment for seed germination and growth.
