Can be used to protect crops from frost, pests, and weeds while allowing air and water to pass through.
GSM Range
9 to 120 GSM
Typical Widths
2.2m, 2.4m
Crop covers
9 to 30 gsmLightweight – allows light, air and water through while providing frost and pest protection
Plant covers
9 to 30 gsmSimilar to crop covers – lightweight breathable protection
Frost protection
17 to 20 gsmVery lightweight – primary function is thermal insulation, not strength
Weed control mat
50 to 80 gsmHeavier, and typically black. Needs to block light and withstand foot traffic and UV exposure.
Seedling pots
40 to 60 gsmThis gsm is recommended so that it is flexible but can also hold its shape when placed into a pot
Root ball wrapping
70 to 80 gsmHeavier, needs tensile strength to support soil and root ball weight during handling
Underlay
80 to 120 gsmHeavy duty – puncture resistance and dimensional stability required as an underlay
