Wider Coverage and Handling Benefits

Sixteen foot wide erosion control blankets change how crews approach large slopes, channels, and long runs by putting more material in place with fewer passes. Wider coverage reduces overlap, limits wasted material, and allows teams to stabilize ground faster without adding labor or complexity.

Ero-Guard sixteen foot wide blankets are designed to perform across a range of applications, from straw and coconut blankets to turf reinforcement mats and excelsior systems. Standard sizes support efficient planning and predictable installation, with custom dimensions available when site conditions require flexibility.

Sixteen foot wide blankets deliver clear advantages in both production and cost control.

  • Wider coverage reduces seam overlap, which lowers material waste and accelerates installation across large areas.
  • Magnum one thousand square yard rolls allow crews to place significantly more blanket per shift, with documented gains of up to thirty percent compared to smaller rolls.
  • Cost savings exceed one and a half cents per square yard when compared to narrower blanket formats, creating measurable budget advantages on large projects.
  • Magnum rolls are palletized and manufactured with four inch cores to accommodate machine unrolling equipment, reducing crew fatigue and improving placement consistency.

Sixteen foot wide blankets are not required on every project, but where access, grading, and layout allow, they provide a clear efficiency advantage. Reduced handling, fewer overlaps, and faster coverage help crews maintain momentum while delivering reliable erosion control performance.

Ero-Guard designs blanket widths and Magnum roll formats to support real jobsite conditions. Sixteen foot wide systems give contractors the ability to stabilize more ground in less time while maintaining control over material use, labor, and installation quality.
