PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION NORTH A~~~, C35O The composite turf reinforcement mat (C-TRM) shall be amachine-produced mat of 100% coconut fiber matrix incorporated into a permanent three-dimensional turf reinforcement matting. The matrix shall be stitch bonded between a super heavy duty W stabilized bottom net with 0.50 x 0.50 inch (1.27 x 1.27 cm) openings, a ultra duty UV stabilized, dramafically corrugated (crimped) intermediate netting with 0.50 x 0.50 inch (1.27 x 1.27 cm) openings, and covered by a super heavy duty UV stabilized top net with 0.50 x 0.50 inch (1.27 x 1.27 cm) openings. The corrugated netting shall form prominent closely spaced ridges across the entire width of the mat. The three nettings shall be stitched together on 1.50 inch (3.81 cm) centers with UV stabilized polypropylene thread to form a permanent three-dimensional turf reinforcement matting.
