Its a strong and flexible flat sheet material that is an excellent way of helping trees to establish roots in preferred zones. It is used widely around the world and comes in many different roll widths. RootStop root barrier is rigid enough to hold its form when placed into a trench. This is a big advantage as it will not be dragged downward during backfilling.
