Description

Ground Cover is a high-strength, woven polypropylene weed-control fabric engineered for professional horticulture and landscaping applications. Its construction provides a stable root-suppressing barrier while allowing water and nutrients to pass through into the soil — supporting healthy plant growth.

With a tensile strength of 18/16 kN/m and a lightweight 100 gsm design, it combines durability, handling efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for farms, nurseries, estates, parks, mines, sports facilities, and residential gardens.

Integrated green gridlines assist with accurate plant-pot alignment and improved presentation in commercial setups.

This ground cover is UV-stabilised for prolonged outdoor exposure — ensuring long performance life across African environments with intense sunlight.
The fabric is also reusable for multiple growing seasons and 100% recyclable, supporting environmentally responsible land management.

Installation Guidance

  • Lay fabric directly over leveled, de-weeded soil

  • Secure using ground staples or trench edges:
    spacing 0.5m – 1.0m depending on site exposure

  • Maintain tight tension to avoid air gaps

  • Overlap joints by 150 – 300 mm

  • For high-traffic areas — apply gravel / mulch cover
