Evansville, IN — North American Green introduces HydraCM™ Bonded Fiber Matrix, the mid-level product in its HydraMatriCx™; line of straw/cotton-fiber, hydraulic erosion control products. HydraCM was developed in cooperation with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Cotton Incorporated. “With the introduction of HydraCM Bonded Fiber Matrix, North American Green now offers a complete line of hydromulch products to meet any commercial, industrial, or residential erosion control need,” says Tim Lancaster, President, North American Green.
HydraCM contains a blend of cross-linked, insoluble, hydro-colloidal tackifiers to provide erosion control and facilitate vegetation establishment on medium length, moderate-to-steep slopes, 4:1 to 3:1. The product is cost effective compared to other wood-based bonded fiber matrices, because a larger area of coverage can be obtained per tank load due to the low water to mulch ratio required for mixing. It also agitates instantly, can be applied in one step together with seed and soil amendments, and is easy to clean up. HydraCM and all HydraMatriCx products are made with straw and cotton-ginned fibers, and provide key benefits associated with cotton. Those include absorbency to hold moisture and promote seed-to-soil contact for germination; porosity for seedlings to push through without barrier; and biodegradability. Additionally, HydraMatriCx products are recognized as sustainable products because they contain post- industrial cotton-ginned byproducts.
