Rolled Erosion Control Product (RECP)
Reliable Surface Protection for Soil & Seed Stabilization
Rolled Erosion Control Product (RECP) provides temporary or permanent protection for disturbed soils while promoting vegetation growth. At Soil Concepts Inc., we install RECP with precision to ensure your site is protected from erosion, complies with regulations, and transitions smoothly to long-term stabilization.
What is RECP?
Rolled Erosion Control Product is a woven or non-woven biodegradable or synthetic fabric designed to stabilize soil, reduce runoff velocity, and support seed germination.
It is unrolled across exposed areas and anchored securely to stay in place during heavy rainfall or water flow. Some types of RECP also offer reinforcement for vegetation once it’s established.
When & Why It’s Used
RECP is commonly used for:
- Slopes, channels, and embankments prone to erosion
- Newly seeded areas requiring protection during germination
- Sites with low to moderate water flow
- DOT, utility, or commercial projects needing temporary or long-term stabilization
- Areas that require minimal maintenance after installation
RECP is a cost-effective, efficient solution for erosion control and natural revegetation.
