Hydromulch
Achieve widespread and effective erosion control with hydraulic mulch. Choose from base level mulches like cellulose and wood mulch or upgrade to a high performance hydraulic mulch for sites that need fast germination in tough conditions.
100% Cellulose Hydromulch
100% Cellulose, also known as Paper Mulch, is made from 100% recycled cellulose fibers. It is one of the most common erosion control mulches because it successfully controls erosion at a cost-effective price.
When hydraulically applied, the cellulose fibers bond with the soil to create a porous layer that controls erosion and accelerates germination for plant growth.
Apply 100% Cellulose Mulch on flat to mild slopes up to 4:1.

70/30 Blend Hydromulch
Benefits
Mulch & Grow Hybrid 70/30 Blend is a unique composition of DLK fibers and cellulose fibers. Double lined kraft (DLK) fibers are derived from milled cardboard and used to improve water retention. DLK and cellulose fibers are blended with the proprietary Super Absorbing Polymer (S.A.P.) 1000 to improve water holding capacity to 1500 times its own weight. Apply Mulch & Grow Hybrid for erosion control on highways, developments and golf courses.

100% Wood Hydraulic Mulch
Benefits
100% Wood Hydromulch is derived from wood chips. Wood Mulch has greater moisture retention than cellulose fibers which is important for establishing vegetation. Use Wood Hydraulic Mulch on moderately steep slopes with moderate erosion problems.
| Application | Application Rate |
|---|---|
| Flat to 4:1 | 1,500 lbs/acre |
| 3:1 – 2:1 | 2,000 lbs/acre |
| Steeper than 2:1 | 2,500 lbs/acre |

EZ Mulch AF Pellet Mulch
EZ Mulch Advanced Formula (AF) is formulated with a unique blend of paper and corn fiber. This pellet mulch can be used for many seeding applications: by hand, in a spreader and in a hydroseeder. EZ Mulch AF is designed to fully expand within two minutes of being hit with water. It also holds up to 40% more water than other pellet mulches on the market. EZ Mulch AF has a low dust profile, is biodegradable and does not contain any weed seed.
| Hydroseeding Application | Application Rate |
|---|---|
| Flat | 50 lbs per 1,000 SF |
| > 4:1 slope with maximum length of 30 feet | 55 lbs per 1,000 SF |
| 4:1 – 3:1 with maximum length of 25 feet | 60 lbs per 1,000 SF |

High Performance Hydromulch Products
EarthGuard® Fiber Matrix™
EarthGuard® Fiber Matrix™ is a high performance hydromulch made from wood fibers and a proprietary binding agent. This engineered mulch has a high soil retention rating which means it is a great choice for erosion control – even on steep slopes.
EarthGuard Fiber® Matrix™ has a unique formula that works directly on the soil so it does not harden. Instead, the mulch creates a porous covering that allows water to infiltrate and aids in vegetative establishment. When EarthGuard® Fiber Matrix™ binds with the soil, it flocculates sediment so that discharged stormwater is clean. The high load rating and low application rate means you can apply more EarthGuard® in less time compared to other high performance mulches.

| 50 lb Bale | 40 Bales per pallet |
| 5 gal Pail | 32 Pails per pallet |
EarthGuard® Edge™
EDGE™ is a granular hydromulch that offers excellent erosion control and quick growth establishment. Granular mulch is easier to load and handle compared to other hydraulic mulches. This type of mulch is ideal for a small hydroseeder but it can also be spread by hand or spreader. EDGE™ is dyed dark green in order to make application easy and uniform.
