The composite turf reinforcement mat (C-TRM) shall be a machine-produced mat of 100% UV stable polypropylene fiber matrix incorporated into permanent three-dimensional turf rein-forcement matting.

Our P550 TRM has a polypropylene fiber matrix augmenting the permanent netting structure. Unvegetated, the VMax P550 TRM reduces soil loss under shear stress up to 4.0 psf (191 Pa). The ultra-strong structure drives the vegetated shear resistance up to 14 psf (672 Pa).

North American Green's P550 is a composite turf reinforcement mat. It is made with 100% UV stable polypropylene fiber. Unvegetated, it reduces soil loss under shear stress up to 4.0 psf and increases permanent vegetation performance up to 14 psf.

P550 is a permanent, three-dimensional TRM that provides immediate erosion protection and long-term turf reinforcement and is intended for applications requiring erosion protection for greater than thirty-six months. Each roll of P550 is made in the USA and manufactured under Western Green’s Quality Assurance

Our P550 TRM has a polypropylene fiber matrix augmenting the permanent netting structure. Unvegetated, the VMax P550 TRM reduces soil loss under shear stress up to 4.0 psf (191 Pa). The ultra-strong structure drives the vegetated shear resistance up to 14 psf (672 Pa).

P550 is designed to provide long-term, pre-vegetated erosion protection and permanent turf reinforcement in an extensive range of severe applications that include steep slopes; extreme, high-flow channels; and shorelines.

The P550 shall meet Type 5A, B, and C specification requirements established by the Erosion Control Technology Council (E CTC) and Federal Highway Administration ˇs (F HWA)

P550 is designed to provide long-term, pre-vegetated erosion protection and permanent turf reinforcement in an extensive range of severe applications that include extreme-flow channels, spillways, stream banks, and shorelines. P550 is proven to drive the shear resistance of vegetation to over 672 Pascal—a new maximum for vegetation reinforcement.

VMax® Permanent Turf Reinforcement Mats. The top of the line P550® TRM has a polypropylene fiber matrix augmenting the permanent netting structure with permanent mulching and erosion control performance. Unvegetated, the P550 TRM reduces soil loss to less than 0.5 in. (12.7 mm) under shear stress up to 4.0 lbs/ft2 (191 Pa).

VMax³ P550 is composed of a permanent, ultra-high-strength, three-dimensional matting structure incorporated with a permanent 100% polypropylene fibre matrix. These unique systems enable vegetation to be used in areas where forces exerted by water exceed the shear limits of unreinforced vegetation
