Benefits:
1. Finely spaced layers each act as a reservoir resulting in constant and uniform water displacement throughout the entire area. As plants use the water, it is replaced by that held in the mat therefore providing a continual source.
2. Constant pF capillary rise is strong and minimizes dry spots. Water is supplied to the plant constantly even on gently sloping or uneven benching.
3. Capillary matting has excellent wet/dry performance, shrinking slightly when dry and expanding again when wet.
4. The product has been developed at one of Britain's leading flower research and development centres, ensuring reliability and performance.
5. The materials used in the production of capillary matting are non-phyto-toxic, making it safe for plants. It is easily cleaned, providing more than one season of service.
6. Matting can be sterilized by gentle steam cleaning and will not react to most proprietary brands of algicides.
7. The matting's flexibility makes it easy to move, cut, and overlap.
