Sourcing weed control nonwoven fabric 1.0 x 10 m, 100 g/m², black

Sourcing weed control nonwoven fabric 1.0 x 10 m, 100 g/m², black is a landscaping membrane designed to suppress weed growth while allowing water and air to reach the soil. The material is a nonwoven, permeable fabric measuring 1.0 m in width and 10 m in length with a mass of 100 g per square metre. It is intended for use under mulch, bark, paving, or directly in planting beds to limit unwanted vegetation and protect soil structure without affecting drainage.

Advantages

The nonwoven fabric blocks a significant portion of light reaching weed seeds, which reduces germination while remaining permeable to water and air. Its uniform density and 100 g/m² weight provide a balance of durability and flexibility that is easy to cut and position. The black colour minimises light transmission and offers a discreet appearance under mulch or paving. The material resists tearing during normal installation and provides long-lasting ground cover for garden and landscaping applications.

Suitable for

• Vegetable and flower beds to reduce weed emergence
• Under decorative mulch, bark or gravel
• Below paving slabs, stepping stones or garden paths
• Allotments, green areas and landscaping projects
• Temporary or permanent ground cover between shrubs and hedges

How to use

Before laying the fabric, prepare the surface by removing existing weeds and leveling the soil. Roll out the fabric with the black side facing up and cut to fit the desired area using scissors or a utility knife. Overlap adjacent strips by 10–20 cm to prevent gaps where weeds can appear. Secure the fabric with landscape staples or pegs placed at regular intervals along the edges and across the sheet. If used under mulch or gravel, apply a 2–6 cm layer of covering material; when used under paving, follow normal subbase requirements for stable installation.

Usage recommendations

For best results, avoid placing the fabric directly where deep-rooted perennial weeds are present without prior removal. Replace or adjust the fabric if it becomes damaged, and periodically check fixings and overlaps to maintain effective weed suppression. Combine the fabric with an appropriate top layer (mulch, gravel or paving) to extend its service life and improve appearance.
