MacMat® is a three-dimensional geomat consisting of entangled polypropylene monofilaments that are heat bonded at the contact points to provide a dimensionally stable matrix for soil erosion protection from wind, rainfall, run-off or flooding. It is a permanent erosion control product composed of UV stabilised, non-degradable synthetic fibres.

MacMat® provides permanent erosion protection on upland slopes, stream banks, wetland boundaries, and shorelines. The mats provide a stable medium to encourage natural colonisation and support healthy plant growth. In certain instances MacMat® may be used in conjunction with double twist wire mesh reinforcement, known as MacMat®-R. When combined with galvanised and PVC coated woven wire mesh, MacMat®-R is used for long term root reinforcement, erosion control and revegetation. This unique combination marries the excellent anti-erosion properties of the three-dimensional MacMat® geomat and the well-known strength properties of the Maccaferri mesh, thus extending the range of applications and diversity of MacMat®.
