Moorland Mesh is a heavy-duty plastic mesh designed for reinforcement of access roads across moorland and soft, boggy areas.

The mesh allows native moorland plants to grow through its open structure while creating a stable surface for agricultural workers, ramblers, and vehicles. Suitable for use in areas with restrictions on development, Moorland Mesh is UV stabilised, does not rot, and does not leach toxic chemicals.

The mesh is flexible to follow undulating ground and is typically pinned to the surface, with natural vegetation eventually entangling with the mesh to enhance stability.

Installation methods are tailored to site-specific conditions, including type, depth, and slope of the ground.

  • Suitable for permanent applications

  • Accommodates shallow slopes

  • Fast and cost-effective installation

  • No excavation or soil removal normally required

  • Higher slip-resistance than standard mesh products

  • Allows native vegetation to grow through the mesh

  • UV stabilised and resistant to rot

  • No leaching of toxic chemicals

Applications

  • Reinforcement of access roads and tracks on moorland and soft ground

  • Use in areas with ecological or development restrictions

  • Access for agricultural workers, ramblers, and vehicles

Thickness: 14.5mm
Weight: 2kg per m² / 5kg per linear metre / 75kg per roll

Materials

Heavy-duty plastic mesh

Performance

UV stabilised; will not rot; does not leach toxic chemicals

Installation

Normally pinned to the underlying surface. Over time, natural vegetation becomes entangled in the mesh to secure it and improve stability. Installation method is tailored to site-specific conditions, including type, depth, and slope of the ground.

Manufacture

Manufactured to order; minimum order quantity is 64 rolls.
