Jump to:
+44 (0)1580 830800 Website

Application

  • Urban tree planting applications.
  • Particularly suitable for new service infrastructure projects, business parks and housing developments.

Description

A high-strength root barrier for deeper applications. Useable vertically, horizontally, around sharp corners, curves and landscape edges. ReRoot Flat is rigid enough to hold its form when placed into a trench and will not be dragged downward during backfilling. The high puncture resistance allows easier compaction close to the barrier.


Features and benefits:

  • Available in 600 mm, 1000 mm, 1500 mm and 2000 mm depths.
  • Available in 1 mm or 2 mm thicknesses.
  • Supplied in roll form and cut to order in 10 m increments to minimise waste.
  • 100% recycled HDPE is impervious to moisture and root penetration.
  • Resistant to puncture, biodegradation, photodegradation, bacteria and most chemicals
  • ReRoot jointing tape allows root-proof joints.
  • Can be fully recycled at end of life.
  • Effective in the control of Japanese knotweed and other invasive plants.
  • Fulfils all Arboricultural Advisory and Information Service guidelines for root barriers.
  • Prevents pavement root heave effectively eliminating trip hazards.
  • Ease of installation in virtually all situations with no specialist equipment required.
  • Roll form provides flexibility to work around obstacles while being rigid enough to hold its form when backfilling.
