Perfect for my garden pathway project! The 150GSM was lightweight enough for me to handle alone. Laid it under gravel and no more weed growth or soil mixing. Great value for residential use.
Use this for residential landscaping jobs. Good quality for the price point. Clients appreciate the clean separation between soil and decorative stones. Would like to see 50m² rolls for smaller gardens.
