WeedTex is a versatile, standard-duty weed suppression solution designed for homeowners and landscapers seeking a low-maintenance outdoor environment. By creating an effective barrier that blocks the sunlight required for weed germination, it helps keep garden beds and pathways clear without the need for constant weeding. While it is an excellent choice for use under PVC decking and light landscaping, it is not intended for high-traffic areas or decorative installations involving heavy aggregates or sharp stone, where a heavier-duty fabric would be more appropriate.

WeedTex is a standard-duty fabric and is not designed for frequent pedestrian traffic. It is best used under decking or in garden beds.
No, for areas covered with aggregates or sharp stone, we recommend using a heavier-duty fabric to prevent puncturing.
The fabric can be easily cut using standard sharp scissors or a utility knife.
It is designed to block sunlight to inhibit growth; however, very aggressive weeds or those starting from the surface of the mulch may still occasionally appear.
Yes, WeedTex is specifically recommended for installation beneath PVC decking boards to keep the area clear.
Each roll measures 25m x 2m, providing a total coverage area of 50 square meters.
Ensure that you have sufficient overlap (at least 10cm) between rolls and secure with landscaping pegs at the seams.
Use more landscape securing pegs at regular intervals, especially on sloped terrain, to anchor the fabric firmly to the soil.
Clear the area of sharp sticks or debris before laying the fabric; if the ground is very rough, consider raking it smooth first.
To ensure the longevity of your WeedTex installation, avoid using it in areas prone to heavy foot traffic or where heavy stones might puncture the material. When installing, use sharp scissors to cut the fabric to size, minimizing fraying at the edges.
Compatibility note: This fabric is compatible with wood and PVC decking systems, provided the structure is installed over the fabric. For maintenance, keep the covering layer (such as bark) replenished to ensure the fabric remains shielded from direct sunlight, which helps prevent premature material degradation.
