WHY THESE PRODUCTS?
Hard Armor is a term used to describe permanent stabilization solutions which exist in many forms. Such solutions are indicated when water velocities in channels or ditches require very robust reinforcement to prevent erosion problems. We recommend products and systems that represent the most scalable solutions for projects large and small, while offering significant safety and value over poured in place concrete or rip rap.
