Capillary Matting - 60cm x 3m

Capillary matting works through capillary action, a phenomenon where water is drawn upwards through porous materials. The matting absorbs water from a reservoir and distributes it to the soil in plant pots placed on its surface.

This capillary matting can lift water up to 6cm.

With proper care, the matting is designed for longevity and can last up to 8 years.

Yes, the matting is 0.60m wide and can be easily cut to your desired length using scissors.

It is recommended to rinse the matting periodically and perform a deeper clean with mild detergent or a natural citrus cleaner if it becomes soiled or shows signs of algae.

The capillary matting is 3mm thick.

It is suitable for a wide range of plants, including seedlings, cuttings, and established potted plants that require consistent moisture.

Ensure the matting is fully saturated and has good contact with the water source. Check that the water level in the reservoir is sufficient. Clean any debris or algae from the matting.

Reduce the water level in the reservoir or ensure the matting is not constantly submerged. Check that pots have adequate drainage holes.

Clean the matting thoroughly with warm water and mild detergent or a citrus cleaner. Allow it to dry completely before re-use. Consider using a slightly less porous material or a different watering method if this is a recurring issue.

Ensure you are only using mild detergents or natural cleaners. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods. Store the matting dry and out of direct sunlight when not in use.
