Bamboo Shield - 80 Mil Thick by 30in Depth 90 Feet

Description

Even concrete will freeze and crack over the years. to metals because it will not rust and easier to install Protective side is chrome rolled to provide a better rhizome deflection surface. Superior to metals because it will not rust and easier to install Protective side is chrome rolled to provide a better rhizome deflection surface. Controls growth of bamboo by limiting rhizome (root) expansion 80 mil is effective for warm to hot climates with medium to large size bamboo. Seldom are driveways seen without cracks. This would be extremely cold and the thickness greater than 30 mil does great at handling very cold temperatures without damage. Bamboo is not magical, but persistent and its root system will eventually find cracks in concrete and emerg. The polyethylene barrier is made from post industrial recycled regrind material when possible, in the USA. One of the many myths of bamboo is its ability to crack solid concrete. While a clumping type bamboo may do this, given enough years, a running type bamboo just runs and does not usually apply the outward pressure of a clumping bamboo or hardwood tree. Plastic thinner than 30 mil has been shown to crack when ground temperatures 24 inches deep get below -15 degrees F. Concrete was used many years ago ( Byron Agriculture Station in Byron, Georgia) as a below ground barrier system and found to crack below the frost line allowing bamboo rhizomes to emerge through to the other side. It is made from HDPE, high-density polyethylene.

Key Features

• Plastic thinner than 30 mil has been shown to crack when ground temperatures 24 inches deep get below -15 degrees F.
• to metals because it will not rust and easier to install Protective side is chrome rolled to provide a better rhizome deflection surface.
• The plastic barrier has a better chance not cracking when frozen like other materials.
• Driveways are poured 4 to 6 inches deep to allow heavy vehicles passage and parking.
• Bamboo roots typically travel in the first 12 inches of topsoil.
• 80 mil (5/64th inch or 2 mm) material thickness that provides 155 pound-force puncture resistance.
