Products used in Hydromulching technology are developed according to needs. With the feedback from user experiences and R&D studies, the contents of the products are changing and the ease of use is increased. Euro-Tec’s Natura-Mulch series mulches are performance products that comes about this way.
It has been determined that there are 3 cases in which hydromulching applications are frequently used, showing different features in terms of physical and chemical properties, and 3 products with different performance levels were created with the ingredient recipe developed separately for each case. These are;
– Natura-Mulch ‘Slopes’ for steep slopes
– Natura-Mulch ‘Defective Soil’ for situations where soil properties are not good
– Natura-Mulch ‘Top Soil’ for areas with no slope or with little slope
Here we will tell you about the Natura-Mulch ‘Slopes’ product. With this product of Euro-Tec Turkey, application can be made in areas with slopes up to 3: 1, 2: 1 and 1: 1, which we can call medium-vertical slope (horizontal: vertical). Our product includes 45% pine wood fibers, 27% recycled cellulose fibers, 5% Bio char, 15% OSYR (plant nutrient), and 8% adhesive (thickener). In this way, all consumables used for Hydromulching come with the product. Therefore, the operator does not have to carry different product packages and bins and add them to the mixture each time. By simply adding water, seeds and Natura-Mulch ‘Slopes’, the operator can prepare the mixture.
This product is used in the application you see in the photos. Soil erosion was completely stopped as a result of the application made on this slope, which has a slope between 2: 1 and 1: 1 and its face towards the north. While the top soil in the area left as it is in the continuation of the slope was constantly eroded by the effect of rainfall; the Natura-Mulch ‘Slopes’ application provided complete stabilization in the Hydroseeding area. And this was the first desired effect. Secondly, it was desired to create a vegetation with wild flowers in this area. For this, we used a mixture of seeds of plants suitable for the region and climate. You can see how germination begins, wildflowers seedlings and green cover, in the photos.
