What Is Anti-Grass Cloth?
Anti-Grass Cloth, also known as Weed Control Fabric or Ground Cover, is a woven polypropylene (PP) material designed to suppress unwanted weed growth while maintaining excellent water and air permeability. It allows essential nutrients and moisture to pass through to the soil but effectively blocks sunlight, preventing weed seeds from germinating. TYNOD Anti-Grass Cloth is UV-stabilized and resistant to degradation, ensuring long-term performance under various weather conditions. It is widely used in agriculture, horticulture, and landscaping for soil protection, greenhouse flooring, and orchard management. By minimizing the need for chemical herbicides, it enhances soil health, reduces maintenance efforts, and supports efficient irrigation, making it an eco-friendly and cost-effective ground management solution.

Applications of Anti-Grass Cloth
1️⃣ Agriculture & Greenhouses
Prevents unwanted weed growth around crops and greenhouse plants, reducing manual weeding and herbicide use. It helps maintain cleaner planting areas and promotes efficient farming management.
2️⃣ Gardening & Landscaping
Ideal for gardens, parks, and landscape projects, the fabric keeps outdoor spaces neat and visually appealing by blocking weeds while allowing soil to breathe and absorb water naturally.
3️⃣ Roadside & Railway Embankments
Enhances soil stability along roads and railways, preventing erosion and excessive vegetation growth that could affect visibility or safety.
4️⃣ Fruit Farms & Vineyards
Maintains balanced soil moisture levels, reduces weed competition, and supports healthier plant growth, leading to improved crop quality and yield.
5️⃣ Construction & Urban Projects
Used beneath pavements, artificial turf, and decorative stone layers as a separation and protection layer, preventing weed intrusion and extending the lifespan of surface materials.
How to Install Anti-Grass Cloth
1️⃣ Prepare the Ground
Clear the area of weeds, stones, and debris. Level the soil surface to ensure the fabric lays flat and maintains close contact with the ground for maximum effectiveness.
2️⃣ Lay the Cloth
Unroll the anti-grass cloth smoothly over the prepared surface. Overlap adjacent sheets by 10–15 cm to prevent weed growth through the gaps and ensure full coverage.
3️⃣ Fix with Pins
Use U-shaped ground pegs or staples to secure the fabric firmly in place, especially along the edges and joints. This prevents shifting caused by wind or foot traffic.
4️⃣ Cover with Mulch / Gravel
Apply a layer of mulch, gravel, or soil over the fabric to improve its UV resistance, enhance aesthetics, and provide additional stability for long-term use.
