Commercial Uses of Rubber Mulch Mats

Large size Rectangular and Square Rubber mulch mats composed of recycled tire rubber offer the commercial user a variety of uses and solutions to problems in landscape design or maintenance, agriculture or tree growing, fence row maintenance, berm or retention pond erosion control, and general facility maintenance.

The large rubber mulch mats offer contribution to LEED credits since they are made of recycled goods, lasting over 5 years, and prevent the annual use of wood mulchs, reducing your irrigation costs.

Many professionals are simply not aware that this product exists so we are raising awareness of how this product may help you.

Here are some examples of how this product can help you.

EROSION CONTROL:

Are you a landscape contractor who must care for an area whose slope is highly slanted causing erosion of silt and sand?

Are you a golf course maintenance crew who has areas where the grass will simply not grow due to shading or erosion of key base soil?

Are you a soil and water district who has areas that erosion is a real problem?

The rectangular mulch mat will solve your problems. The mats comes in 3 sizes:

-3ft x 20ft

-4ft x 8ft

-4ft x 4 ft

These large size rubber mulch mats may be secured to soil and grass with landscape spikes that are easily available at your local hardware store.

They are permeable allowing water to go right through the material and will not disintegrate under stress from running water.

FENCE ROW MAINTENANCE:

Are you a utility or large property or ranch owner and must maintain large rows of fencing as dictated by local code?

De-weeding and maintaining these fence rows can be quite costly from a labor standpoint as a worker is required to weed whack or apply poison to the fence row to prevent overgrowth.

The 3ft x 20ft long rectangular mulch mat of recycled rubber tires is your answer to this expensive maintenance function.

Applying these 20 foot lengths along fence rows will offer a solution that can last at least 5 years and maybe longer.

GENERAL FACILITY MAINTENANCE:

The large size rubber mulch mats have a wide variety of uses that one may not consider. We have sold this product for some of the following uses:

School boards have used the mats as walkways between outdoor classrooms and portables instead of pouring cement or asphalt.

Theme parks have used the material for shows involving live animals.

Theme parks also like the flexibility of using the mats in areas of their parks that are not conducive to growing grass but would look unsightly with traditional wood mulch that can dissipate in constant ainstorms.

Large arenas for football, baseball, and basketball have used the large mulch mats to reduce their landscape maintenance costs by placing the mats instead of ground cover or ornamentals in parking facilities and around the arenas.

Departments of Transportation have used the mats around street signs to protect commercial mowers from mistakenly knocking down the street signs.

AGRICULTURE AND TREE GROWERS:

Some crops require periodic mulching for maximum yield.

The mulch mats are perfect for running along inter tree spaces and around the trees to reduce the need for organic mulching. These mats can be used for fruit or ornamental tree growing.

Many fruit trees perform much better with a mulch layer around them.

LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE and LANDSCAPE DESIGN:

Are you a landscape maintenance contractor that routinely services hundreds of client's ongoing landscape needs?

Are you forced to apply organic mulch twice yearly finding the cost of application and materials for this effort to be ever growing?

Are you looking for new landscaping ideas?

The large rubber mulch mats can be used instead of organic mulch in many areas with great success.

Are you a Landscape Design firm that is attempting to save a client money or offer a more energy efficient method to care for their properties?

The large rubber mulch mats should be included in your property designs.

Organic mulch certainly has a place in landscape design and maintenance but it is quite costly and requires more water than these rubber mulch mats.

The cost benefit is surely on the side of the rubber mats for large jobs.
