FOR PROFESSIONALS
PLANTEX GOLD is a weed prevention mat that has good water (70 l/m²/s), air, and nutrition permeability, however without allowing weeds to grow through. The fabric retains the moisture and heat of the earth, lets the ground breathe, and provides the plants with the conditions they need to grow quickly and remain undamaged. The fabric has a non-woven consistency, so it will not come undone, it is easy to cut, and it works perfectly as a weed preventer in plantations or nurseries, etc.
ROADSIDES AND SHORELINES
It is sometimes difficult to find a covering that will stay in place on e.g. steep road slopes and ramps. The covering is either flushed away by rain or scattered by strong winds. PLANTEX GOLD is the best solution to this problem. It does not need to be covered. At the same time, the erosion caused by rain and air effects is reduced. PLANTEX GOLD can also be used to line the shores of ponds, lakes, and directed waterways. It will not affect the water quality! No organic components will be dissolved into the water that could cause algae to grow. It can also be used to protect the rubber lining of a pond, in which case it is installed below and above the rubber liner.
