Tackifiers are chemical compounds, primarily a blend of polymers and polysaccharides, which form a binding attribute to keep the seeds and fibre in place during germination.
Tackifiers have valuable attributes as they can help defend from weather elements by ensuring stability and adhesion to the soil.
This characteristic is paramount for areas where soil is rough graded or has extreme weather conditions that mean ensuring bond of seeds to the soil is imperative.
The use of tackifiers is optimum for these conditions and has proven to make a significant difference in areas lacking flat or favourable properties.
Flexterra HP-FGM (High Performance Flexible Growth Medium) is an Advanced Fibre Matrix. It is a wood-based mulch that is engineered to be crimped and have biodegradable interlocking fibres with adhesive properties to increase bond strength.
Profile HPM Wood is a mulch that contains Thermally Refined® wood fibres which have greater yield, interlock, loft, and coverage, compared to shorter atmospherically refined fibres.
