ENVIROFLEX

Interlocking Articulating Concrete Block (ACB) Revetment System

Plantable concrete systems

The premier alternative to rip rap and concrete lined channels!

ENVIROFLEX is an interlocking articulating concrete block (ACB) revetment system designed for erosion control use in riverine and channel environments or other areas with high velocity ows subject to scour. Manufactured from ber reinforced concrete, each block interlocks with overlapped edges, eliminating the blocks ability to overturn under ow conditions. ENVIROFLEX is free from protruding edges so cabling or other connection devices are not required for hydraulic stability. Openings in the block units enable vegetation to establish, providing a green, natural, and environmentally pleasing appearance while allowing stormwater inltration and promoting groundwater recharge. ENVIROFLEX is FHWA tested.

The ENVIROFLEX interlocking ACB system offers a cost effective and environmentally friendly alternative to rip-rap, gabion mattresses, concrete or asphalt linings and other hard armor systems. By requiring a thinner section, less trucking and lower maintenance costs, this unique system provides ample opportunity for signicant savings over standard project costs. The products ability to accept sediment inll from storm events allows the establishment of riparian plants and enables cyclical natural habitat while providing a stable and scour proof bottom.
