Construction and Engineering Events East Coast Erosion Control, Bernville, Pa., has expanded their offering of erosion products to include GroundControl Hydromulch. The Hydromulch product line is designed to promote vegetation growth while saving time and money. The special natural reinforcing fibers of reclaimed cotton plant material are combined with straw and a blend of proprietary additives which help these products to blanket and contour to the surface easily. Each of the products meets or exceeds current industry standards.

“The 100% biodegradable fiber formulation has a low carbon to nitrogen ratio, to help support the roots and plants during growth,” says Diane Hitt, East Coast’s general manager. She continues by saying “The new product line was developed with the contractor in mind. The one step process and low water to mulch ratio will help with jobsite efficiency. In today’s market it is important to keep costs at a minimum, and the GroundControl Hydromulch allows the user to do more in less time. In addition, the product selection has been made as easy as 1,2,3 -eliminating the time spent trying to decipher complicated product names and coding.” Diane emphasizes that these products are an excellent alternative to traditional wood mulches.

The GroundControl products are sustainable products, made with rapidly renewable materials that can contribute toward LEEDTM certification. In order to further its effort to promote sustainability, East Coast Erosion Control has committed to donating over 1,000 new trees which will be planted through American Forests, Inc.

The new GroundControl Hydromulch products are a perfect complement to East Coast’s current line of erosion blankets; as with all of our products the hydromulches are made with highest level of quality & assurance. East Coast Erosion now provides a full range of high quality, easy to use products to ensure you have the right solution for any erosion control job!
