The Black Polythene Ground Cover 125 (1m x 200m) is a high-performance, heavy-duty mulch film ideal for suppressing weed growth in tree planting, hedgerow establishment, and broader landscaping applications. With a thickness of 125 microns, this robust polythene roll creates an effective physical barrier to unwanted vegetation while helping retain soil moisture and regulate ground temperature, essential for establishing healthy root systems.
Widely used in forestry and horticultural environments, this black ground cover is a practical, low-maintenance solution for professional landscapers, contractors, and conservation teams looking to reduce chemical herbicide use and promote efficient establishment of young trees and shrubs. It's particularly effective for new planting schemes where long-term ground cover is required to aid plant survival and performance during early growth stages.
The polythene is UV-stabilised for extended outdoor use, making it suitable for multi-seasonal applications. The material is easy to cut and lay, and compatible with a variety of fixing methods including pegs and anchor pins. Its impermeable structure ensures excellent moisture retention, while also helping to reduce erosion and improve soil structure beneath the cover.
This ground cover is available in a 1m x 200m roll, making it perfect for large-scale planting operations.
