How to Choose Weed Barrier?

Understand the basic characteristics of weed barrier

Material:

Common materials for grass proof cloth include polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE)/polyester, etc. Different materials of grass proof cloth have different properties. PP material has the advantages of being less prone to decay, aging, having good flatness, and high strength, while PE material may have better flexibility and glossiness. Polyester grass cloth has good corrosion resistance and wear resistance, polypropylene grass cloth has good UV resistance, and polyethylene grass cloth has good breathability and waterproofness. Therefore, when choosing grass proof fabric, it is necessary to choose the appropriate material according to one’s own needs.

Specifications:

including density (in square meters), thickness, width, etc. The higher the density, the greater the resistance; The thickness of the grass proof cloth is also one of the important factors affecting its performance. Thick anti grass cloth is often more durable, but the price is relatively high. The width is selected based on the required coverage area.

Color:

The color of the grass proof cloth is also one of the factors to consider. The colors of grass proof cloth generally include black, green/white, etc. Black weed proof cloth can effectively block sunlight and reduce weed growth, but it can also affect the increase in soil temperature. Green grass proof cloth is closer to the natural environment and has a smaller impact on soil temperature. White weed proof cloth can reflect sunlight and maintain stable soil temperature, but it is not conducive to weed control. Therefore, when making a purchase, it is necessary to choose the appropriate color according to one’s own needs.

Observe the appearance details

Uniformity of fabric surface: The mesh density of high-quality grass proof fabric is uniform, without obvious gaps or looseness.
