Typar / Tekton

Biobarrier

Typar/Tekton* - long lasting durable non-woven geotextile fabrics. High Quality PP continuous filament heat bonded material that separates, reinforces and filters soil while letting water pass through.

Applications:

Soil separation	Drainage
Erosion control	Landfill
Earth reinforcement	Filtration
Structure drainage	Root barriers
Weed control fabrics	Railways

Advantages:

Wide range of products
Worldwide manufacture and distribution
Superior durability
Excellent mechanical and hydraulic properties
Proven in the industry for more than 30 years

Biobarrier Root Control System prevents tree roots from growing in a zone around the fabric. Placed between a tree root and the area to be protected, such as a sidewalk, road, building, golf course green or anywhere that roots can cause damage, Biobarrier creates a barrier that causes roots to grow in another direction. Unlike solid barriers, it does not need to protrude above ground where it could be a tripping hazard and costly liability. Because it is a flexible geotextile fabric, Biobarrier easily fits the contours of any job site and is simple to install.
