Pro-Grass Biotextile Fabric

In areas such as road and railway cuttings, excavations on buildings sites, riverbanks and roof gardens, seeding the soil can prove inefficient, with erosion caused by rain, wind and birds.

Because the seeds are impregnated into the biodegradable fabric, they will not move around during the intial germination stages, helping to achieve a faster, more uniform growth of grass across the area.

The soil is prepared by levelling and scratching the surface. The Pro-grass is laid onto the soil and secured with pegs to stop it moving in the wind. The fabric must then be watered, and kept moist.
After approximately two weeks the first shoots of the juvenille grass will be evident. Allow around four weeks for the grass to grow and thicken up before trafficking the area. Then, when the grass sufficiently long, cut and irrigate as normal.

The cellulose fabric itself will degrade after a period of around three months, leaving thick, luscious grass.

However, for particular climatic conditions, such as saline, arid situations or where a very hard wearing tough type of grass is required; clients can select their own seed mix be be impregnated in the fabric mat.

Non-standard selections will incur a slightly higher cost, but it is important to get expert horticultural advice when designing the garden or parkland as non-suitable vegetation will suffer and die over time.
