Sustainable materials are the central part of the erosion control industry and the Erosion Control Technology Council (ECTC). ECTC is a leading industry organization home to top manufacturers of erosion and sediment control products, component suppliers, material distributors and test laboratories. ECTC members are dedicated to advancing the knowledge, experience and expertise of erosion and sediment control. The nonprofit organization's mission is to develop performance standards, uniform testing procedures and guidance on the application and installation of hydraulic erosion control products (HECPs), rolled erosion control products (RECPs) and sediment retention fiber rolls (SRFRs). ECTC recently expanded its reach to other technologies as well, and it promotes the use of erosion and sediment control products through industry leadership and education in the hope of making a substantial contribution to the science of erosion control and environmental preservation. Wood, coconut, hemp, straw, jute, cotton and other natural, sustainable fibers are the core of several rolled Erosion Control Blankets (ECBs), which are RECPs with degradable components, Hydraulic Erision Control Products (HECPs), Sediment Retention Fiber Rolls (SRFRs), and erosion control accessories. |
