Stage 1 The application proved to be an exceptionally powerful economical spray-on erosion control blanket. GeoMatrix Fiber was applied at rate of 3000 lb. per acre along with a blend of other proprietary crimped fibers and crossbinders to ensure a tight intimate interlocking bond to the soil matrix. It performed better than any other product that is currently available in the industry based upon USU’s lab results.

Stage 2 A stronger resiliency to soil erosion was observed when the GeoMatrix Fiber content was increased to 3500 lb. per acre and additional cross binders were added to augment the bonding to the soil. This bond was so powerful, it performed as well as a double net straw erosion control blanket and it was able to accelerate the germination of the seedlings.
 
Stage 3 The best spray-on soil stabilization product available. The additional GeoMatrix fiber at 4000 lb. per acre and cross-binder along with exponentially more crimped fibers added to the significant increased tensile strength to provide protection against large rain events.  Also, water retention within the system was amplified due to the increase in GeoMatrix fiber which enhanced the turf maturation.
