Natural Invasion Promotion Work / BSC Mat Method [Vegetation Mat]
Multifunctional filter - BSC mat
A new form of natural invasion promotion work! Utilizing soil algae, which are primitive organisms!
【BSC Mat】 ◀Soil Algae Material (BSC-1) × Multifunctional Filter▶ NETIS: CG-220006-A ▷What is BSC? Biological Soil Crust BSC refers to a sheet-like colony of soil microorganisms formed by soil algae, lichens, filamentous fungi, and mosses that intertwine soil particles and clumps at the surface. This phenomenon occurs naturally and can be observed in shaded areas of mountainous regions and nearby locations. Soil algae are not invasive or native species; they are protozoa that exist universally around the world. They travel globally carried by wind along with dust and sand. The BSC formed by protozoa serves as the starting point for vegetation succession. <BSC ⇒ Grassland (annual and perennial plants) ⇒ Positive Shrubland ⇒ Positive Forest ⇒ Negative Forest> It is said that it takes about 20 years to form grassland in areas without a natural environment. The BSC mat aims to shorten this period.

basic information
As a natural invasion promotion tool, algae are what are commonly referred to as "moss." Cultivated materials of algae (BSC-1) are attached inside mats specifically designed for soil erosion prevention. While preventing erosion through the effects of the mat, a BSC is formed on the surface. The formation of BSC enhances the soil's moisture retention capacity, creating conditions conducive to plant growth and promoting greening through airborne plants.
