Typar Premium Landscape fabric is a premium product but not at a premium price. The cost-effective fabric is durable to last longer, and a one-time installation prevents weed growth for years. Both homeowners and professional landscapers appreciate the many benefits of Typar Premium Landscape Fabric in helping them achieve the beautiful landscape they desire without the excessive time required to remove weeds.

Typar Premium Landscape Fabric allows homeowners and professional landscapers to spend their time on other tasks or just relaxing. Manufactured of strong and durable spun-bonded polypropylene, Typar Premium Landscape Fabric is composed of continuous fibers, so unlike some woven landscape fabrics, it will not unravel or fray. The fibers are bonded closely together to create a mat that prevents weed roots from growing through it; covered with three to four inches of the mulch of your choice, weed roots don't have room to grow. In fact, in order to allow desired plants to grow through Typar Premium Landscape Fabric, you must cut an "x" through the fabric where you wish to place them.

 

Although Typar Premium Landscape Fabric prevents weed root growth, it is porous enough to allow water, air and nutrients through; this allows for the healthy soil conditions vital for a plant's growth. In addition, unlike black plastic, this porosity means water will not pool on top of it to cause mildew or stagnant pools. The polypropylene used in Typar Premium Landscape Fabric is particularly well-suited for outdoor use because it is durable and not susceptible to mold, mildew, chemicals or microorganisms.

 

Typar Premium Landscape Fabric is lightweight so it's easy to take to the job- site, and its flexible structure makes it a cinch to install because it follows ground contours readily. After removing anything such as rocks or clumps of vegetation that would create a bulge, simply unroll the fabric over the area to be landscaped. Cut an "x" over existing plants, roll back the folds and gently bring the plants through so that Typar Premium Landscape Fabric settles at the base of their stems. (If the area is being newly landscaped, cut an "x" in the fabric where bushes or flowers are to be located before planting them.) Once plants are brought through, cover the fabric with three or four inches of organic mulch such as wood chips, or inorganic mulch such as stone, to protect it from breaking down under the sun's ultraviolet rays.

 

Typar Premium Landscape Fabric is packaged in a variety of sizes. It does more than provide weed control in landscaped or gardened areas. It can be used for soil retention for timber retaining walls, around blind drains, as weed control under decks, to support brick or block walkways, for soil retention in planters and pots, and as an interceptor trench drain.
