Hydraulic Mulches and Soil Additives for Erosion Control
Discover Nexterra’s hydraulic mulches and soil additives designed to stabilize soil, protect seedbeds, and accelerate vegetation growth on slopes and sensitive terrain.
Hydraulic mulches protect seedbeds and stabilize soil for effective erosion control.
Hydraulic mulches and soil additives bring rapid protection to exposed soils, delivering coverage that responds immediately to rainfall impact, wind, and surface movement. Nexterra provides hydraulic solutions that lock into the soil surface, build moisture retention, and create a growth environment where vegetation establishes quickly and reliably. These systems excel in conditions where blankets are impractical, slopes are irregular, or access requires lightweight, spray-applied control.
Hydraulic Mulch and Additive Options
Every landscape presents different challenges, from soil that lacks structure to slopes that need immediate protection. Nexterra supplies hydraulic mulches and soil additives designed to secure the soil surface, improve germination conditions, and promote long-term vegetation development. These mulch and additive systems deliver performance characteristics that directly support soil protection, moisture consistency, and successful vegetation establishment across varied jobsite conditions.
Mesic Wood Mulch
By creating a stable, moisture-holding surface that remains anchored during rainfall and wind exposure, Mesic Wood Mulch supports consistent seed-to-soil contact and fosters uniform plant establishment across the slope.
- Forms a uniform protective layer that shields the seedbed from rainfall impact and surface erosion during early growth stages.
- Maintains soil moisture near the germination zone, supporting consistent sprouting and even vegetative spread across varied conditions.
- Provides structural fiber integrity that outlasts paper and straw alternatives, improving reliability through shifting weather cycles.
This mulch builds a cohesive and stable foundation for emerging vegetation.
EarthGuard Fiber Matrix
By combining structural fiber and soil binder into one continuous sprayed layer, EarthGuard Fiber Matrix delivers immediate surface protection that resists runoff displacement and speeds installation compared to traditional blanket-based methods.
- Creates a continuous bond with the soil surface, preventing rilling and sediment migration during early rainfall events.
- NTPEP tested and TDOT approved for verified consistency in transportation and infrastructure environments.
- Applies effectively to irregular slopes, drainage corridors, and varied surfaces where blanket installation would be slow or inconsistent.
This matrix forms an adhered surface layer that protects the slope while vegetation establishes deep-rooted stability over time.
Edge EarthGuard Pellets
By packaging fiber and binder into pelletized form, Edge EarthGuard Pellets provide a storable, lightweight material that hydrates on site and spreads into a consistent erosion-controlling layer without the bulk handling of loose mulch.
- Accommodates both hydraulic spray and dry broadcast placement, allowing crews to treat steep banks, remote corridors, and limited-access terrain without altering application strategy.
- Expands instantly upon contact with rainfall or irrigation, forming a cohesive fiber matrix that clings to uneven surfaces and resists displacement under early storm events.
- Maintains reliable coverage where machinery cannot operate continuously or where ground conditions shift, ensuring stabilization remains consistent even when field logistics do not.
This versatile delivery format reduces handling pressure and keeps erosion control advancing smoothly, even in environments that challenge conventional installation methods.
Organix Hydraulic Biotic Soil Amendment
Restoring soil productivity requires rebuilding the organic structure and microbial activity that support sustained vegetative growth. Organix Hydraulic Biotic Soil Amendment provides this restoration by revitalizing depleted soils and establishing conditions where vegetation can take hold and mature. This amendment delivers restorative performance by reintroducing essential biological components, enhancing nutrient availability, and supporting long-term soil stability.
- Reintroducing organic matter, nutrient sources, and beneficial microbial populations into soils that would otherwise be unable to support sustained germination or growth.
- Reducing or eliminating the need for imported topsoil by improving the existing substrate in place, which lowers hauling requirements, minimizes site disturbance, and supports environmental stewardship.
- Developing durable soil structure that enables vegetation to root more deeply, withstand seasonal fluctuations, and maintain vigor even under prolonged environmental stress.
This approach strengthens the soil profile from within, supporting vegetation that does not merely survive but becomes an integrated, long-lasting component of the stabilized landscape.
Fusion Blend
A complete stabilization approach must protect the soil surface while also improving the underlying conditions required for vegetation to root, spread, and endure. Fusion Blend accomplishes this by merging erosion resistance with soil regeneration, forming a single application system that strengthens both the surface and the soil profile beneath it.
- The formulation combines the soil-building capacity of Organix with the erosion control performance of EarthGuard Fiber Matrix, creating a unified layer that supports growth while resisting displacement.
- Vegetation establishment is supported even in soils with insufficient structure or nutrient content, allowing plant roots to take hold where germination would otherwise stall or fail.
- Installation is streamlined because soil amendment and erosion protection occur in the same pass, eliminating the need for separate topsoil replacement or additional stabilization steps.
By fueling soil health and stabilizing the surface simultaneously, Fusion Blend produces a landscape that gains structural integrity and vegetative strength over time rather than weakening under environmental exposure.
