GreenArmor System – Futerra®

Establish vegetation quickly with this premium Green Design Engineering™ solution featuring Futerra TRM and Flexterra® HP-FGM®.

The GreenArmor System combines engineering innovation with agronomic expertise. As a result, it offers civil engineers one of the most effective Green Design Engineering™ solutions available. Firstly, a turf reinforcement mat (TRM) provides a permanent, open matrix. Then the system is hydraulically infilled with Flexterra HP-FGM which bonds soil and seeds in order to accelerate vegetative growth. Because the system’s components work so well together, turf establishes rapidly with reinforced root systems, consequently providing superior protection against hydraulic lift and shear forces. This is especially true in areas where traditional TRMs fail. For example, use the unique GreenArmor System for high-discharge waterways and steep slopes. Furthermore, it is both an environmentally friendly and aesthetically pleasing alternative to hard armor. Not to mention, test results from the renowned Colorado State University Hydraulics Laboratory show this system delivers unmatched safety and performance.

Open matrix of the Futerra Turf Reinforcement mat

Futerra Series

Formerly known as Enkamat, Futerra is the preferred Turf Reinforcement Mat (TRM) for the innovative GreenArmor System. Crafted from thermally fused polyamide (nylon) filaments, Futerra forms a durable, open matrix designed for superior performance. Its 95% open space maximizes synergy with hydraulically applied mulches, allowing contractors to spray directly into the matrix for a thicker, protective layer that safeguards soil and seed during installation. For ultimate erosion control and vegetative growth, combine with Flexterra® High Performance – Flexible Growth Medium™ (HP-FGM)

Why choose Futerra Turf Reinforcement Mats?

Since 1972, Futerra has set the standard for erosion control by effectively reinforcing plant root systems and enhancing natural protection. Once fully vegetated, it can withstand water velocities exceeding 20 feet per second and shear stresses up to 10 pounds per square foot. Futerra/Enkamat delivers long-lasting erosion control, faster vegetation growth, and exceptional structural integrity, making it ideal for high-flow, challenging environments where maximum root entanglement and erosion resistance are critical.
