Manufactured from eco-friendly Polylactic Acid, it looks and feels very much like your conventional, non-woven petrochemical-based membranes which are available on the market today. PLA has been manufactured from annually renewable, starch-rich vegetables with production requiring fewer fossil fuels and generating overall less greenhouse gases than traditional plastic fabrics.
The visually pleasing Geotextile Weed Control Fabric is stronger, more robust and easier to handle than any other degradable fabrics on the market and resists airborne seed settlement much better.
We also supply 3m and 4m widths upon request for larger-scale projects.
