NewswireToday - /newswire/ - Blackburn, Lancashire, United Kingdom, 08/19/2010 - One of the largest importers of landscaping fabric and weed control fabric in the UK has launched a “new product” Terram Root Guard.

Tree roots growing under roads, drives, patios and lawns can be a real nuisance and cause significant damage to property. Terram Root Guard is a black heavy duty landscaping fabric specifically designed with high tear strength and puncture resistance to protect against the growth of roots.

Terram Root Guard is another great addition to our landscaping fabric range of products which includes weed control fabric, Frost Protection Fleece, and Heavy Duty Ground Cover.”
