Protecting Maroochydore from coastal erosion with Elcorock

Elcorock Geotextile Sand Containers have a long-standing relationship with Maroochydore, more specifically, where the natural Maroochy River meets the ocean. In 2001, an emergency sea wall and a groyne were built for immediate protection of the Cotton Tree Holiday Park as it was at threat of an inundation from king tides and storm events.
Elcorock is a shoreline protection system that consists of sand filled geotextile containers built to form a stabilising, defensive barrier against coastal erosion. It is highly resistant to abrasion, hydrocarbon, impact damage and UV degradation, which makes Elcorock ideal for constructing breakwaters, sea walls, revetments, groynes and artificial reef.
