Greening of a slope

Use of the erosion protection geocomposite RecsViresco in Como

Due to the rainfall, erosion occurred, resulting in the disruption of a road embankment near Como. It was necessary to intervene promptly to secure the slope and restore traffic on the road, adopting solutions that would allow a fast construction site and effective and lasting results.
A few weeks after the end of the work, it can be seen that the turf growth is uniform, offering ideal protection from erosion by runoff and/or rain.

Virens applications

The slope was reprofiled and the surface was protected by the application of the pre-seeded erosion protection geocomposite RecsViresco consisting of the pre-seeded and pre-fertilised Viresco biotextile bonded to a double twisted anti-erosion wire mesh.

Once the RecsViresco geocomposite was laid, it was then embedded in the slope with several deep anchoring means, which made the geocomposite integral to the ground and prevented possible slippage underneath.

The installation took place in mid-April, without relief irrigation and in a climatic period when there was not much rain.
However, RecsViresco came close to summer with almost complete grassing, which then took place in the autumn.

It was thus possible to see that the erosion protection greening geocomposite RecsViresco is a highly effective and useful solution in all slope protection, stabilisation and greening works, thanks to the presence of the pre-seeded Viresco biotextile, which adheres intimately to the soil and allows the slope to be immediately protected from erosion, while also promoting full and uniform greening.
In addition, the seed mix in the Viresco biofabric can be customised according to the season, the location where it will be laid or to comply with special requirements (e.g. if it needs to be laid in parks).

The solution adopted therefore offers several advantages:
Reduced working time; a single layer of the geocomposite stabilises and grasses the slope.
Speed of laying and securing.
Reduced space requirements and simplified site organisation.
Effective result with perfect surface erosion control
