PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

J3000™ is a 100% organic tackifier manufactured from guar gum. J3000™ is specifically designed for use as a hydraulically applied erosion control tackifier. J3000™ is used as a stand-alone temporary erosion control product or with wood, paper, or other native fiber mulches to provide superior bonding strength.

APPLICATION GUIDELINES

It is recommended that J3000™ be applied at 10 to 25 lbs per 1000 gallons of water depending on machine capacity. When used as an overspray for straw, use J3000™ more concentrated at the rate of 40 lbs in 1000 gallons per acre with the use of 150 to 300 lbs of mulch as a marker.

GENERAL USAGE RATES PER ACRE

SLOPE: FLAT 4:1 3:1 2:1 1:1
LB/ACRE: 30-50 50-80 80-100 100-150 150-220

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Add water to tank to cover blades of lower agitator.
  2. Add J3000™ slowly while filling tank with agitator at high speed.
  3. After J3000™ is thoroughly mixed, add mulch seed, and fertilizer.

PACKAGING

J3000™ is packaged in 50 lb multi-wall paper bags, 40 bags per pallet with stretched wrapped cover and pallet liner.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Product Basics

J3000™ is a 100% organic, guar gum tackifier formulated for use in hydraulically applied erosion control.

J3000™ is designed to:

  • Improve fiber-to-soil bonding on disturbed soils

  • Enhance the performance of mulch applications

  • Reduce surface erosion on construction sites and slopes

  • Serve as a tackifier for hydroseeding and erosion control installations

Applications & Mixing

It is recommended that J3000 be applied at 10 to 25 lbs per 1000 gallons of water
depending on machine capacity. When used as an overspray for straw, use J3000 more
concentrated at the rate of 40 lbs in 1000 gallons per acre with the use of 150 to 300 lbs of
mulch as a marker.

Below are the recommended J3000™ application rates per acre for different slope gradients:

Slope Ratio Application Rate (lb/acre)
Flat 30–50 lb/acre
1:4 50–80 lb/acre
1:3 80–100 lb/acre
1:2 100–150 lb/acre
1:1 150–220 lb/acre

Follow these steps for proper mixing:

  1. Add water to the tank until it covers the lower agitator blades.

  2. Slowly add J3000™ while filling the tank with the agitator running at high speed.

  3. Once fully blended, add mulch, seed, and fertilizer as needed for your application.

Safety & the Environment

Yes. J3000™ is made from 100% organic guar gum, making it biodegradable, non-toxic, and safe for soil, vegetation, and wildlife.

Absolutely. J3000™ can be mixed with:

  • Wood fiber mulch

  • Paper mulch

  • Native fiber mulch

  • Seed and fertilizer blends

Combining J3000™ with mulch products enhances fiber cohesiveness and improves erosion-control performance.
