Greenhouse ground covers provide a boundary between gravel and soil so weeds have no chance to grow. It provides a healthy balance of air, water and nutrient exchange, creating an optimal living environment for the crop. At Royal Brinkman, we offer a variety of ground covers.

The use of ground cloth has several functions in horticulture, including:

• Light reflection: in crops where maximum use is made of available light, white ground cloth is laid down to maximize the reflection of sunlight;
• Weed control: in many crops ground cloth is placed on the ground in the greenhouse to prevent weeds from growing;
• Crop rotation: during crop rotation, a ground cloth called a canopy drape is used. With the help of the cloth, the old crop is pulled out of the paths;
• Cover: ground cloth is regularly used on cultivation tables.
