Introducing InfraJute Mesh®: Natural Slope Protection with Biodegradable Strength

InfraJute Mesh® is a woven biodegradable erosion control fabric made from 100% jute fibre. Engineered for slope and embankment protection, it offers natural reinforcement while allowing vegetation to establish. With its open weave design, it is ideal for soil stabilisation in areas requiring temporary coverage and sediment retention, including roadside batters, rehabilitation zones, and drainage corridors.

Proven Strength in Erosion and Sediment Control

Weighing 500gsm and supplied in 1.22m wide rolls, InfraJute Mesh® features a thread count of 10×7.5 per cm (MD × CD), providing structural stability while allowing seed emergence and water infiltration. With a tensile strength of 10 kN/m (MD), it can be securely pegged across sloped terrain and disturbed soils to reduce erosion until vegetation takes hold.

Optimised for Australian Project Needs

InfraJute Mesh® performs reliably under 6–12 month exposure windows, ideal for regions experiencing short growing seasons or unpredictable rainfall. It is widely used in temporary erosion control plans, especially in areas where synthetic products are restricted or unsuited due to ecological sensitivity.

Eco-Friendly and Naturally Degradable

As a plant-based alternative to plastic mesh, InfraJute Mesh® fully decomposes without harming the soil. Its water-holding capacity supports faster seed germination and root establishment, while its open area reduces surface velocity from rainwater and shallow flow. No removal is required—just natural reintegration with the environment.

Top Applications for InfraJute Mesh®

• Slope and Batter Protection: Reinforces topsoil and seed layers on embankments and roadside cuttings.
• Drainage Swales & Channels: Provides temporary shear resistance during establishment in swales and shallow drainage paths.
• Sediment Control: Helps retain surface fines and prevent washout in exposed soils.
• Construction Site Rehabilitation: Rapid-deploy option for topsoil cover on disturbed areas awaiting revegetation.
• Eco-Sensitive Zones: Suitable for bushland, waterway fringes, and offset planting areas where synthetics are avoided.
