Restoring Earth Naturally: The Role of Jute Soil Saver and Jute Leno Weave Nets in Sustainable Erosion Control

As the world embraces sustainable development and climate-resilient practices, the importance of eco-friendly erosion control methods has never been more vital. At Bonterra Limited, we are proud to be at the forefront of this global transition manufacturing and exporting high-performance, 100% biodegradable erosion control products that protect soil, restore landscapes and serve the planet with care.

Two standout innovations in our natural erosion control portfolio are the Jute Soil Saver and Jute Leno Weave Net. Both products are designed with nature in mind, offering exceptional durability, biodegradability and functional efficiency in a wide range of environmental applications. From controlling surface erosion on steep slopes to supporting vegetation growth in disturbed soils, these jute-based solutions are helping restore ecological balance across continents.

Jute Soil Saver: A Biodegradable Blanket that Nurtures the Earth

The Jute Soil Saver is an open-weave fabric made from 100% natural jute fibre. Crafted for strength, breathability and flexibility It acts as a temporary soil cover that protects vulnerable land from the forces of wind, water and gravity.

Applications:

  • Highway embankments
  • Reforestation zones
  • Riverbanks and coastal restoration
  • Construction site stabilization
  • Mine reclamation projects

Why Choose Bonterra’s Jute Soil Saver?

  • Superior Tensile Strength: Ideal for controlling moderate to high-slope erosion.
  • Moisture Retention: Enhances soil moisture for healthy seed germination and vegetation growth.
  • Eco Integration: Fully decomposes within 6–9 months, enriching the soil with organic matter.
  • Global Standards: Manufactured under strict quality control and exported to North America, Australia, the Middle East and South America.

As it naturally biodegrades, the Jute Soil Saver leaves behind a rejuvenated and stabilised environment—allowing nature to reclaim its balance.

Jute Leno Weave Net: Engineered for Soil Control and Vegetation Support

The Jute Leno Weave Net, also referred to as jute geotextile mesh, is an intricately woven fabric produced using leno weaving techniques that offer controlled porosity and structure. This product is widely acclaimed in global landscaping and civil engineering sectors for its role in gentle yet firm soil reinforcement.

Applications:

  • Landscape restoration
  • Silt fence backing
  • Turf reinforcement and slope protection
  • Agricultural bunds
  • Green roofing projects

Bonterra’s Quality Commitment,

  • Precision Weaving: Available in multiple GSMs (typically 46 GSM), ensuring custom fit for different terrains.
  • Uniform Strength Distribution: Minimises soil displacement and runoff.
  • Flexible Deployment: Easy to install and compatible with mechanical laying systems.
  • Aesthetic and Functional: Integrates seamlessly into natural landscapes.

Unlike synthetic alternatives, Bonterra’s Jute Leno Weave Net breathes with the earth, enabling vegetation to grow through its grid while reinforcing the soil beneath.
