Erosion Control

Protect Your Site. Preserve Your Soil.

At Vertrac, we deliver effective erosion control solutions designed to protect your land from soil loss, surface degradation, and environmental impact. Using a combination of hydromulching, hydroseeding, and soil stabilisation techniques, we help safeguard your site against wind, rain, and runoff—ensuring long-term stability and compliance.

From residential developments to large-scale civil and mining projects, our solutions are tailored to suit your site conditions and performance requirements.

What is Erosion Control?

Erosion control involves the use of specialised techniques and materials to prevent soil displacement caused by environmental factors such as rainfall, water flow, and wind.

Without proper protection, exposed soils can lead to:

  • Loss of valuable topsoil

  • Sediment runoff and environmental damage

  • Site instability and safety risks

  • Increased maintenance and remediation costs

Our goal is to stabilise surfaces quickly and effectively, reducing these risks while promoting long-term vegetation growth.

Advanced Mulch Technologies

When using hydromulching or hydroseeding for erosion control, the type of mulch plays a critical role in performance.

We utilise high-quality, wood fibre-based manufactured products, including:

  • Bonded Fibre Matrix (BFM) – Forms a durable, erosion-resistant blanket that bonds to the soil surface, providing excellent protection on steep slopes and high-risk areas

  • Hydraulic Growth Media (HGM) – Combines mulch, soil amendments, and performance additives to enhance both erosion control and vegetation establishment

Each product is selected based on site conditions, slope severity, rainfall exposure, and required longevity.
