    WEED CONTROL

    Weed control is a growing application for Concrete Canvas® (CC). Compared to alternatives, CC can be installed on limited access sites and around sensitive infrastrcutre without risk of damage. Available in bulk and batched rolls, with the latter allowing for safe rail- and road-side installation, CC provides effective, durable and long-term weed suppression.

    WHY USE CC?

    CC has been tested against weed suppression and root penetration resistance according to DD CEN/TS 14416:2005.
    CC is available in man-portable batched rolls which can be installed without the need for plant equipment,
    making it an ideal solution for limited access sites and where application is required near a road or railway.

    For Oil & Gas applications, CC offers long-term, durable hydrocarbon resistance.
    It prevents corrosion of pipework from vegetation growth and when used to provide weed suppression
    under pipe tracks and bands, provides clear leak detection visibility.

    INSTALLATION PRINCIPLES

    Prepare the substrate so that surfaces are well compacted, geotechnically stable with a smooth, uniform surface.

    It is important to ensure that the CC is jointed at every overlap between layers and that those layers are fixed to the substrate.

    It is important to prevent water or wind ingress between the CC and the substrate, both around the perimeter of the installation and along the joints.

    It is important to properly hydrate CC, using enough water for the quantity of material used and allowing for drying conditions.

    It is important to prevent water or wind ingress between the CC and the substrate, both around the perimeter of the installation and along the joints.
