Stenlog

The Stenlog is an elongated tube of compacted straw and/or other fibers wrapped in rapid degradable tubular polypropylene plastic netting. Stenlog is used for temporary erosion and sediment control applications and is commonly installed along the contours or at the base of a slope to help reduce soil erosion and retain sediment. The Stenlog is designed to allow runoff/water to penetrate through the fiber while reducing sediment migration. Stenlogs function as slope interruption devices and therefore shorten slope lengths reducing runoff velocity and the potential for sheet erosion and rill formation. Stenlogs work in conjunction with Hydroseeding, Bonded Fiber Matrix (BFM), Fiber Reinforced Matrix (FRM), Stabilized Mulch Matrix (SMM), straw mulching, and erosion control blankets to further reduce erosion and sediment migration.

  • The Stenlog provides a cost effective alternative to other sediment trapping devices (i.e. silt fence).
  • The Stenlog can be easily installed and does not require removal.
  • The straw matrix of the Stenlog is biodegradable.
  • The functional longevity is approximately 6-12 months, depending on moisture, light, and environmental conditions.

The 9-inch (23 cm) Stenlog (Straw Wattle) is an elongated tube of compacted straw and/or other fibers wrapped in UV stabilized degradable tubular polypropylene plastic netting. The 9-inch (23 cm) Stenlog is used for temporary erosion and sediment control applications and are commonly installed along the contours or at the base of a slope to help reduce soil erosion and retain sediment. The Stenlog is designed to allow runoff/water to penetrate through the fiber while reducing sediment migration. Stenlogs function as slope interruption devices and therefore shorten slope lengths reducing runoff velocity and the potential for sheet erosion and rill formation.
Stenlogs work in conjunction with surface roughening, straw mulching, bonded fiber matrix, hydroseeding and erosion control blankets to further reduce erosion and sediment migration.
