Ground-cover fabric for berries
Herbicide-free weed control on strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and blackberry. We manufacture the fabric to size; water-permeable, keeping the row clean.
EU
In berries, weeds compete with a delicate crop and hamper picking. Ground-cover fabric is a water-permeable woven that blocks light from the soil and suppresses weeds without chemicals, while keeping the fruit and the working row cleaner. At Textil Villa de Pego we manufacture it to measure since 1949, for soil-grown, raised-bed or tunnel crops. We supply the fabric, not the structure.
Advantages for your crop
Weed control
Blocks light from the soil and suppresses weeds along the berry row without herbicide.
Water-permeable
Lets rain and irrigation through while suppressing weeds and reducing soil splash onto the fruit.
A clean working row
Keeps the bed and lanes cleaner, making picking easier.
Made to measure
We cut the fabric to the width of your bed or tunnel, in the weight suited to your management.
How it is fitted
Ground-cover fabric is spread over the bed or berry row — in soil or under a tunnel — and anchored so the wind cannot lift it; the plants sit in the openings cut into it. The permeable woven lets water through but not light, so weeds do not germinate and the fruit stays cleaner. We manufacture the fabric to the width of your bed or tunnel.
Frequently asked questions
Do you install the fabric?
No. We manufacture and supply the fabric made to measure; laying it, cutting the planting openings and anchoring it are done by you or your team. We advise on width and weight.
Does it let irrigation and rain through?
Yes. The fabric is permeable: it lets water through to the soil while blocking light to suppress weeds.
Which berries is it for?
For strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and blackberry, grown in soil, on raised beds or under tunnels.
Is it made to measure?
Yes. We cut the fabric to the width of your bed or tunnel, in the weight suited to your management and the durability you need.
Other applications
