Coir Logs: Erosion and sediment control
Control runoff, reduce sediment movement and protect disturbed ground with natural coir logs for erosion control.
Made from densely packed coconut fibre, coir logs slow surface water, trap moving sediment and provide support while vegetation becomes established. They are suited to civil works, creek banks, rehabilitation areas, batters, drainage zones and landscaping projects.
Ecospill supplies 2.4 metre and 3 metre coir logs, installation stakes and bulk quantities for larger projects across Australia.

Control erosion and sediment on site
Exposed soil can wash away quickly during heavy rain, especially on construction sites, steep roadside batters, slopes, banks and rehabilitation areas.
Once sediment leaves the work area, it can enter stormwater systems, neighbouring land or waterways, creating clean-up costs, environmental damage, project delays and regulatory risk.
Coir logs create a permeable barrier across runoff paths and are made out of coconut fibre to slow surface water, trap soil and sediment, reduce erosion and support vegetation establishment, flexing around uneven banks and slopes.
Ecospill’s coir logs are natural and biodegradable, making them ideal for revegetation and rehabilitation projects. They are also durable, tough and flexible for active civil, construction and mining sites where erosion and sediment control needs to stand up to demanding conditions.
Ecospill Coir Log options
Ecospill supplies coir logs in options suited to civil, environmental and landscaping projects.
2.4 m Coir Logs
A shorter format designed to simplify pallet freight and onsite handling.
3 m Coir Logs
Suitable for longer runs and larger erosion control areas.
Installation Stakes
Timber stakes are available to help secure coir logs firmly against the ground.
Bulk Pallet Quantities
For civil works, rehabilitation programs and larger-scale projects.
Ecospill’s 200 mm x 3 m coir log has an approximate service life of 24 months under suitable conditions. Actual service life will depend on installation, water flow, climate and site conditions.

Coir Logs that work with the landscape
The flexible construction makes coir logs easier to shape around natural contours than rigid erosion barriers.
Across slopes to interrupt runoff and reduce erosion.
Along creek banks and gullies to protect disturbed soil and support revegetation.
Around drainage paths to slow water and capture sediment before it moves further through the site.
Within rehabilitation areas where a biodegradable control is preferred over material that will need to be removed later.
Vegetation can also be planted around, behind or through the coir fibres. As the root system develops, the vegetation increasingly takes over the long-term stabilisation role.
