Biodegradable Cornstarch Mulch Film ~Heavyweight

A natural and long lasting alternative to using black plastic. This is an environmentally friendly material made from cornstarch that will last much longer than regular landscaping material. Made from 100gsm cornstarch it is ideal for use where longer periods of protection are required. Ideal for suppressing stubborn weeds and for establishing trees and shrubs in landscaping situations where conventional, permanent Geo- textile materials are not desirable. Perfect for over winter use so your beds will be in top condition for the new year sowing. It's permeable to air and water. When not required any longer it can be removed to a compost or simply left in the soil to do its thing. Compostable according to standard EN 13432, this heavyweight film is more like a fabric and is dark brown in colour. It will take up to 36 months at least to even begin breaking down but is absolutely fine for the soil.
