Rolls Waterproof Membrane Sheet Root Barrier
Root Barrier Membrane Description
A root barrier membrane is a specialized type of membrane used in landscaping and construction to control the growth of plant roots. It is typically made of durable materials such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber. The primary purpose of a root barrier membrane is to prevent the invasive growth of roots into undesired areas, such as building foundations, underground utilities, or paved surfaces.
Root Barrier Membrane Application
Landscaping and gardening:
- Around trees, shrubs, and other plants to prevent roots from damaging nearby structures, pipes, or foundations.
- Along walkways, driveways, and patios to stop roots from lifting or cracking the surfaces.
- Around garden beds and planters to contain the root system within the designated areas.
