Coir Green Waterlogs – Biologs – Coirlogs are made out of cylinder/round shape netting packed with Coir fiber. Each log comprises of coir netting/matting, packed with coir coconut fiber ranging from 7 – 9kg per linear meter. The diameter of the log varies as per requirement, usually come as 20cm, 30,40cm and 50cm diameter with 2 or 4 meter length for the cylindrical logs.
Over a period of time, coir which is eco-friendly and biodegradable completely disintegrates leaving only humus, which enriches the soil.
Usage of CGlogs
Stream bank stabilization
Shoreline protection
Wetland mitigation
Channel edge liner

Advantages of CGlogs
Easy to install, 100% natural, eco-friendly and bio-degradable geotextile fabric
Water absorbent coir coconut fiber acts as mulch on the surface and as a wick in the soil
The excellent micro-climate coir provides establishment, natural invasion and balanced healthy growth.
Coir jute matting / netting provides restoration of terrestrial and aquatic riparian habitat.
Coir logs are an environmentally-friendly product
Allows for deep rooting of plants while providing nutrients
Customised to specific requirement for projects (Eg: 30cm X 2m with 7kg of coco fiber per LM….)
Root strength provides superior shear stress protection
Naturally resistant to mold & rot, hence needs no chemical treatment
Native vegetation means robust growth and less maintenance
Applications
Coir logs can easily be anchored with wooden stakes, spaced either 1, 3, or 4 feet apart, depending on the hydraulic sites condition.
They are installed against the shoreline at the toe of the water-way.
End of adjacent Waterlogs are tied together with coco coir twine.
Plants are placed in the holes of the logs (on top of the log between the coir netting holding the logs together)
Plants are usually pre-planted
