Rigid Root Barriers

Products:         Vertiroot-barrier by DuPont

Vertiroot-barrier is a semi rigid barrier, laterally flexible and vertically rigid. It is light weight for a rigid barrier, making it the practical choice in many situations. The barrier uses a technically advanced fabric developed by DuPont which prevents and contains aggressive weed growth.

Not only is this barrier easy to use and available in a range of sizes, it is a relatively economic product.
