Terram WeedGuard is a non-woven geotextile weed membrane that offers a practical alternative to chemical weedkillers. Designed for landscaping, gardening, and ground cover applications, it forms a breathable layer that blocks weed growth while still allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach the soil. Whether used beneath gravel, bark, or paving, this weed control geotextile fabric delivers long-term weed suppression with minimal maintenance.
Materials and Structure
Terram WeedGuard is a non-woven geotextile manufactured from a blend of polypropylene (70%) and polyethylene (30%). The material is needle-punched to create a porous but durable fabric that resists tearing and fraying. It allows moisture, air, and nutrients to pass through while preventing light penetration — a key factor in inhibiting weed growth.
Supplied in a roll format measuring 2.25m x 50m with a weight of 90g/m², WeedGuard is lightweight, flexible, and easy to install. Its dark grey colour blends discreetly with mulch, gravel, or soil coverings, ensuring a clean and natural-looking finish in landscaped areas.
