Articulated Concrete Block
Flexible Armoring for Slopes, Channels, and Shorelines
We supply and install articulated concrete block systems across Western Canada, using proven products like Flexamat and Cable Concrete. These systems provide durable, flexible erosion protection that adapts to ground movement while stabilizing slopes, shorelines, and channels.
With extensive installation experience, we deliver ACB solutions that perform in real site conditions and meet project and environmental requirements.
Concrete Block Mats
Flexamat®
Flexamat is a vegetated concrete block mat system used for erosion control and slope stabilization across channels, shorelines, and embankments. It combines hard armoring with flexibility, allowing the system to conform to ground movement while supporting long-term stability.
- High-strength erosion control – Concrete block mats on geogrid provide durable protection against scour and high-flow conditions.
- Fast, low-impact install – Rolled out and pinned in place, reducing heavy equipment and site disruption.
- Flexible finish options – Use as hard armour or soil-fill for vegetated, eco-stable reinforcement.
Engineered Flexibility
Concrete blocks are embedded into a high-strength geogrid with spacing that allows the mat to adapt to terrain and support optional vegetation growth.
Efficient & Scalable Installation
Supplied in rolled sections, Flexamat allows for efficient transport, placement, and consistent coverage across large or difficult-to-access areas.
Erosion Control Where It Matters
Designed to withstand flow and wave action, Flexamat is widely used for riverbank and shoreline armoring, helping control erosion and maintain site integrity over time.
Articulated Block Systems
Cable Concrete®
Cable Concrete is an articulated concrete block system used for erosion control and slope stabilization across channels, shorelines, and drainage systems. Individual blocks are connected by cables, allowing the system to conform to ground conditions while maintaining continuous surface protection.
Flexible Ground Conformance
Cabled connections allow the system to adapt to terrain changes, helping maintain stability on uneven surfaces and under varying site conditions.
Engineered to Suit Conditions
Available in multiple thicknesses, Cable Concrete can be selected based on flow rates, load requirements, and project specifications.
Reliable Long-Term Protection
Used for streambanks, shorelines, channels, and slopes where consistent armoring is required to control erosion and prevent scour.
Safety at CEC is Structured and Consistent
Our crews follow established systems, complete daily hazard assessments, and work within clear procedures that align with project and regulatory requirements.
We plan work with safety in mind from the start, so execution in the field is controlled, documented, and inspection-ready.
