Nursery Grass Control System

Crafted from durable polypropylene (PP) or polyethylene (PE), this woven fabric serves as an efficient ground cover for nursery and agricultural applications, offering robust weed suppression and soil management. The tightly woven structure blocks sunlight, inhibiting weed germination and growth while allowing rainwater and air to penetrate, maintaining soil moisture and aeration for healthy root development. With excellent UV resistance, it withstands outdoor exposure, lasting 3–5 years depending on usage (3+ years in open fields, 5+ years in greenhouses).

Product Advantage

1. High-Efficiency Weed Suppression with Breathable Design

The 80–120g/m² PP/PE woven structure blocks 90–95% sunlight penetration (ASTM D638), inhibiting weed seed germination while allowing 20–30% water permeability (ASTM D4491) for soil hydration. Its 0.2–0.5mm pore size balances weed growth suppression (90%+ reduction in annual weeds) with root zone aeration, ideal for nursery beds, orchards, and greenhouse floors.


2. Extreme UV Resistance & Long Service Life

Treated with UV-stabilizing additives, the fabric retains ≥85% tensile strength after 500 hours of UV exposure (ASTM G154), lasting 3–5 years in outdoor environments (5+ years in shaded greenhouses). This outperforms non-treated alternatives by 50%, reducing replacement costs for long-term agricultural projects.


3. Lightweight Durability & Easy Installation

At 80–150g/m², it’s 30% lighter than traditional geotextiles yet offers 200N/5cm longitudinal tensile strength (ASTM D885), resisting tears from machinery or animal traffic. Pre-cut rolls (0.6–6m width) enable quick installation—simply stake or staple over prepared soil, saving 20% labor time compared to manual weeding.


4. Drainage-Enhanced Soil Protection

The open-weave design allows 500–800mL/min/㎡ water infiltration (ASTM D4491), preventing surface runoff and soil erosion during heavy rains. A 10cm gravel/sand underlay (optional) boosts drainage efficiency, protecting plant roots from waterlogging while maintaining optimal moisture levels for seedling growth.


5. Eco-Friendly & Customizable Solutions

Available in 100% PP, PE, or PP/PE blends, the fabric is recyclable at end-of-life and free of harmful chemicals (SGS-certified), aligning with organic farming practices. Customizable options include anti-fungal coatings, biodegradable additives (for 1–2-year temporary use), and logo printing for brand visibility in commercial nurseries.

Product Uses

Nursery Seedling Beds

Ideal for flower nurseries and young plant cultivation, the fabric’s 90–95% sunlight blockage suppresses weed growth, preventing nutrient competition with seedlings. Its 0.2–0.5mm pore structure allows 20–30% water permeability for soil hydration and root aeration, reducing manual weeding by 70% and boosting seedling survival rates by 15%.


Orchards & Vineyards

Laid between fruit tree rows, the fabric withstands -40°C to 70°C temperatures and 200N/5cm tensile stress from machinery, resisting tears and soil erosion. With 3–5 years of outdoor durability (≥85% strength after 500 hours of UV exposure), it minimizes herbicide use while protecting root systems in open-field environments.


Greenhouses & Polytunnels

Used in controlled environments, the 5–8-year service life (shaded conditions) blocks weeds without compromising air circulation. At 80–150g/m², it’s lightweight for easy handling, reducing greenhouse floor load while maintaining optimal soil moisture via its breathable weave (500mL/min/㎡ water infiltration).


Landscape & Turf Edging

Suited for parks and greenbelts, customizable widths (0.6–6m) fit irregular terrains, securing with staples to prevent weed invasion through pavement cracks. Its UV-stabilized design (ASTM G154) ensures long-term neatness, cutting landscaping maintenance costs by 30% through effective weed control.


Organic Farms & Eco-Gardens

Certified free of harmful substances (SGS-tested), the 100% recyclable PP/PE fabric meets organic farming standards, replacing chemical herbicides. It blocks perennial weeds like crabgrass while allowing rainwater penetration (20–30% permeability), creating a clean, sustainable growing environment for crops.


Potted Plants & Seedling Trays

Cut to size for container gardening, the 0.2mm pore size prevents weed seed germination on pot surfaces, while its breathable structure supports healthy root development. Ideal for delicate plants like succulents or orchids, it reduces soil contamination and maintains aesthetic appeal with minimal upkeep.


FAQ

Q: How well does it prevent weed growth?

A: The fabric blocks 90–95% of sunlight (ASTM E903), inhibiting photosynthesis and reducing weed emergence by 90%+. Its 0.2–0.5mm pores allow rainwater and air to reach roots, balancing weed suppression with soil health.


Q: How long does it last outdoors?

A: UV-stabilized treatment ensures 3–5 years of outdoor durability (retaining ≥85% tensile strength after 500 hours of UV exposure, ASTM G154), and 5–8 years in greenhouses—50% longer than non-UV alternatives.


Q: Is installation difficult for large areas?

A: No—lightweight rolls (80–150g/m², 0.6–6m width) install easily with staples, nails, or welding, saving 20% labor time versus manual weeding. Suitable for uneven terrain without special tools.


Q: Is this fabric eco-friendly for organic farming?

A: Yes. Made from 100% recyclable PP/PE, it’s SGS-certified free of harmful substances, compliant with organic standards (NOP, EU Ecolabel), and eliminates chemical herbicides for sustainable weed control.


Q: Can I get custom sizes or specifications?

A: Absolutely. Choose 80–150g/m² grammage, PP/PE blends, or anti-fungal coatings. Custom widths (0.6–6m) and biodegradable options are available to fit nurseries, orchards, or greenhouse projects.
