Biobarrier® Root Control System Now Available In Canada

Biobarrier® Root Control System has been approved by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) for sale in Canada. The unique, porous, durable geotextile fabric safely and effectively re-directs tree and shrub roots from walls, sidewalks, foundations and landscapes and is guaranteed for 15 years.

Biobarrier is placed in a trench between roots and the area to be protected, and it offers several advantages over other root barriers. It does not need to protrude above ground where it could be a tripping hazard and costly liability. It’s a flexible geotextile fabric, so it will fit the contours of the site and can be used along a sidewalk, to encircle a tree or in any other configuration. Unlike a solid barrier, Biobarrier will not create a “swimming pool” effect by trapping water in a circle, which could drown the tree or shrub. The geotextile fabric is porous to allow air, nutrients and water through it—soil hydrology is not affected.
