Biobarrier® Root Control System Names Distributions Bellemare et Boyer, Inc. (DBB) The Distributor For Canada

Biobarrier Root Control System, recently approved by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) for distribution in Canada, has appointed Distributions Bellemare et Boyer, Inc. of Dorval, Quebec as the exclusive Canadian distributor.

“We are excited that Michel Boyer and D.B.B. will be handling Biobarrier sales in Canada,” says Jerry Dunaway, Biobarrier sales manager. “They have a proven track record and a good understanding of the product and the industry.”

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.
