ShearForce10 Prep Pond

Our landscaping crews work with municipalities, general contractors, property managers, HOA's Etc. This innovative Hybrid turf solution is a combination of real grass and other vegetation supported by a simulated grass turf.

 

The unique hybrid design provides the soil protection of 30” rock riprap immediately upon installation while promoting the growth of live vegetation to further reinforce and protect. You can have all the aesthetic and erosion-control benefits of natural vegetation without having to wait for vegetation to fully grow-in.

 

No other erosion control product provides the immediate soil protection like InstaTurf does while facilitating long-term vegetation growth. Get in touch with us to learn more about this rip rap alternative that's more cost effective than rock riprap.
