Tildenet Mulchtex 50 Weed Control Membrane

We sell this by the metre and is 2m wide.  Use it to suppress weeds if you are after low maintenance gardening.  Can be covered with bark, decorative stones, slabs or any other covering to stop weeds coming through.  Some people we know have had this sort of covering down for 10yrs and is still stopping the weeds!

From the manufacturer - The Mulchtex range is a spun bonded polypropylene weed control fabric with high levels of UV stabiliser which allows air, nutrients and liquids to pass through soil. Mulchtex acts as a weed barrier and enables easy planting, by pre-cutting cross holes in the fabric. Because it is spunbonded material, it can be easily cut without fraying. 

Update 28th October 2020

Please note that our suppliers have increased prices to us apparently due to Brexit.  As a result we have had to increase some of our prices by a few pence.  So the prices currently on here may not match those in the shop in some cases.  Please be assured that our prices will always give great value and many prices are cheaper than the likes of Amazon etc.  

If there is one thing we believe in, it's being honest and transparent.  

We know how hard finances are for everyone right now and we have negotiated hard and being very selective whom we buy from.  In some cased we have absorbed increases.  As the shop is there to supply to our members, we are a service and not a company.  Some items we sell at cost, but we must make something to cover overheads of the shop and site.
