Use our bio-degradable, all natural, BioWool™ weed matting to improve growing conditions without the need for chemical treatment.
Fully biodegradable, these weed mats are made from unrefined and recycled, ethically-sourced wool and are manufactured in the UK.
Ideal for use around the base of a young tree plant, they are strong, durable and easy to install, coming with a pre-cut slit (or 'spat').
BioWool™ weed matting suppresses weeds, protects plant roots from frost, and reduces moisture loss in arid conditions, whilst allowing moisture to pass through in damp conditions.
Benefits:
· Weed suppression
· Moisture control
· Temperature control
· Easy to install
· Fully biodegradable
Installation:
· Prepare flattened ground by weeding or strimming prior to installation
· Wrap around base of plant
· Fix tightly into position with pegs or pins
Permeable
Allows air, water and nutrients to pass through to the plant.
Reduced moisture loss
In arid conditions, matting helps retain soil moisture.
Weed suppression
Supresses weeds naturally, without the need for chemicals, by preventing light ingress.
Natural deer deterrent
Contains a high level of lanolin, found in sheep wool, which is known to deter deer.
Temperature protection
Provides an insulating layer to protect plant roots against frost.
Lifespan
2-3 years protection
Designed to be effective for 2-3 years (24 to 36 months) before biodegrading into the soil. Subject to soil type and environmental conditions.
Woven backing
Strong, woven, biodegradable backing prevents birds breaking down for nesting material.
Breaks down to natural elements
Degrades as H2O, CO2, methane and biomass, becoming a form of natural fertiliser.
Fully biodegradable
Natural, wool-based, product is fully biodegradable.
Installation
Strong and durable
Layered wool fibre structure, delivers strength and longevity.
Easy to install
Pre-cut split/spat for fast, easy installation.
Can be left in situ
Especially useful in overgrown areas.
No removal needed
Save money - no collection or recycling needed.
1. It is important to prepare the ground before laying your matting. Ideally weed the area and/or strim to create a flat surface.
2. Notch or pit plant your plant and, if using plant support or guard, insert stake or cane. Then wrap your mat around its base, ideally overlapping the edges slightly to avoid weeds breaking through.
3. Secure the mat tightly in place with pegs or metal pins. We recommend 5 pegs or pins – located in the four corners and one in the middle of the overlap slit. If using, install plant guard.
TIP: We recommend using an extra 4 pegs or pins if you are using your square weed mat in a windy location. Position these extra pegs or pins between the corners.
