Profile Erosion Control Solutions (PECS): an integrated system that helps you keep soil in place.
Case Studies for Sediment Control
Avalon Canyon
An extremely steep and long embankment was but one challenge in the repair of a massive washout.Beverly Hills Home
TRMs create the perfect medium to stabilize and beautify slopes for the construction of a Beverly Hills home on top of an environmentally and aesthetically sensitive ridge.Boulder Business Park, PA
The challenge of turning turbid, coal-laden water from a detention basin into clean, clear water prior to discharge into a neighboring trout stream proved to be no difficulty for Profile Products’ new Terra-Tubes™ Filber Filtration Tubes.Caltrans Post-Wildfire
Following devastating California wildfires, contractors were faced with revegetating steep slopes along state highways. This case study highlights how contractors hydraulically applied Profile’s Hydro-Blanket® BFM to enhance germination and provide faster vegetation establishment.Eagle’s Nest Golf Course, Toronto
A golf course project focused on cost-effective erosion control on long, steep, sandy dune slopes.Highway 130, TX
A billion-dollar road construction project in central Texas faced drought conditions, poor soils and damaging rainstorms when officials tried to establish vegetation on slopes and in ditches. Flexterra® FGM and the GreenArmor™ TRM System provided the soil solutions to achieve growth.Highway 154, CA
After devastating winter rains damaged many of Southern California’s mountainous highways, Flexterra Flexible Growth Medium was used to stabilize and establish vegetation on the steep mountain slopes supporting sections of Highway 154 in Santa Barbara County.Highway 290, SC
Challenged with an environmentally sensitive area and a steep, 2H:IV slope, contractors paired Profile Products’ Flexterra® Flexible Growth Medium and Terra-Tubes™ Fiber Filtration Tubes to provide optimal erosion and sediment control.Lafarge Quarry, Ontario
After several discouraging attempts to establish turf on its mined overburden, Lafarge quarry officials found slope stabilization success with Profile’s Flexterra® FGM and Terra-Tubes® FFT products.LaRonda Channel
Low growth vegetation successfully anchored by Enkamat TRMs prevent erosion in a runoff channel stream and reduces chemical particulates from depositing in the Pacific Ocean.Mifflin County Conservation District
By conforming on contact to rough, steep surfaces to enhance seed germination and soil stabilization, Flexterra FGM offers unparalleled performance. But don’t just take our word for it. Take a look at what our customer has to say.NJ DOT, Sparta, NJ
A test at a DOT construction site that tested Flexterra on 2.5H:1V gradients under adverse weather conditions.Patriot Hills Golf Course
A golf course project aimed at limiting soil losses from storm water runoff.Savage High School
Enka-Green design software develops the ideal erosion control system, combining Enkamat TRM and a bonded fiber matrix, to prevent slope erosion and quickly establish vegetation surrounding Savage, Minnesota’s new high school.StormCon White Paper
Research conducted testing sediment retention devices (fiber filtration tubes, wattles, fiber rolls, silt fences) to determine the best method to retain storm water sediments.
Sudbury, Ontario, Canada
Mountainous slag slopes were reclaimed utilizing Terra-Tubes® Fiber Filtration Tubes and a custom legume/grass mixture applied in a slurry with Flexterra® Flexible Growth Medium™. The massive slag accumulation now resembles the lush landscapes of Ireland
