International Erosion Control Systems Inc. (IECS) products

Articulating concrete revetment systems in conjunction with an underlying geotextile or filter will help retain and stabilize onsite soils from the destructive forces associated with storm events.  By acting as ballast for the geotextile, it is important to choose the ideal shape and weight of the concrete units.  Once the mattresses are in place, they provide the structural stability to prevent ongoing erosion or scour.  Because of their articulating nature and the fact that the cables are cast directly into the concrete, the entire mattress will remain cohesive, while allowing for natural settlement over time.
