Roots from trees and shrubs can grow vigorously and cause costly damage to underground pipes, drainage systems, building foundations, patios, fences, and pathways. Root Barrier 360 provides a professional solution to prevent these problems, offering a robust, impermeable barrier to control root spread and protect hard landscaping.
Root Barrier 360 features a unique coating on both sides, making it fully impermeable and exceptionally durable. This dual-sided protection allows the barrier to be used between two trees or shrubs to prevent roots from merging, simplifying maintenance or removal of plants later. Ideal for forestry, urban planting, commercial landscaping, and estate management, Root Barrier 360 is heavy-duty and designed to protect utilities, walls, fences, footpaths, and service pipes. It also functions as an effective weed control solution, guiding roots downward while preventing lateral spread.
This root barrier is recommended for professional applications where long-term performance, durability, and root management are critical, giving peace of mind for property owners, landscapers, and land managers.
