Introducing Eco Panel - Iron Cross 48” — a 4ft x 4ft, compostable aerial panel system designed for serious surveying in challenging environments. This 10‑pack of aerial targets marries a distinctive Iron Cross motif (two opposing triangles) with sustainable materials to deliver reliable visibility from a distance while protecting the planet.
Why this design stands out
- Iron Cross motif: A bold, easy-to-see pattern that remains legible across varied terrains and lighting conditions, helping crews lock in targets quickly and minimize rework.
- Organic, natural jute material: Each panel is crafted from 4ft x 4ft jute fabric, harvested from the bark of the Jute Plant (Corchorus capsularis). Jute is a renewable, annual crop known for biodegradability and recyclability, making it a responsible choice for remote job sites.
- Safe printing: The design is printed with soy-based inks, offering vibrant, durable imagery without harsh chemicals.
- Compostable and biodegradable: Jute panels naturally breakdown in a few months, reducing plastic waste and landfill impact. Compostable Patent Pending — a forward-thinking solution for sustainable surveying workflows.
- Pack of 10: Ready-to-deploy set for larger projects or multiple sites, eliminating the need for frequent reorders or substitutions mid‑fieldwork.
- Set-and-forget practicality: Ideal for remote locations where retrieving plastic panels is impractical or costly. If retrieval is necessary, simply place the panels in your compost pile on return to let them break down naturally.
Who benefits most
Ideal for surveyors, geospatial teams, environmental monitors, and field crews operating in remote or rugged sites where traditional plastic markers add weight and logistical burden. The Eco Panel system delivers clear visibility, reduces field waste, and aligns with sustainability goals without sacrificing performance.
What makes it better than alternatives
- Biodegradable, compostable composition dramatically lowers environmental footprint compared with conventional plastic targets.
- Patent Pending compostable design that supports an end‑of‑life strategy on-site or back at base without leaving plastic residue.
- Jute’s soil-friendly profile mirrors responsible land stewardship typical of modern surveying practices.
Practical tips for use
- Deploy the Iron Cross pattern at key survey points to maximize target recognition from multiple angles.
- Plan for end-of-life: at project conclusion, either place panels in your compost stream or allow them to biodegrade in the field where appropriate.
- Good for mapping up to 1"=100 ft scales
- Store panels in a dry, shaded area to preserve fabric integrity before use.
Eco Panel - Iron Cross 48” embodies a practical, planet-conscious approach to field surveying. It’s a patent-pending, environmentally focused solution backed by Sonoma Innovations’ Surveying Guru program, designed to deliver reliable performance today while sparing tomorrow’s resources. If you’re surveying in remote locations and want to minimize waste without compromising visibility, this 10‑pak is built to meet your needs with purpose and precision.
