RECOVER is Beaulieu’s most durable weed control ground cover that has been re-designed with recycled content to meet new criteria for durability and longevity, as well as offering customers a more sustainable solution for containerfields. Post industrial waste is added during the production process, creating a CO2 reduction.

Also new at this year’s number one horticultural technology event in the Netherlands, where water conservation is a key theme, is Beaulieu’s RECOVER PRO ground cover which helps nurseries to improve water management, promote healthier plants, reduce disease and adopt more sustainable horticultural practices. 

RECOVER PRO, designed specifically for lava-containerfields which leverage the unique properties of natural volcanic lava rock, offers a 37% carbon saving, 40% recycled content, the guarantee of 900 kLy UV protection, a ten-year lifespan, high resistance to mechanical stress and optimal, environmentally friendly weed control.

“Horticultural professionals around the world rely on our agrotextiles for quality and sustainability and Beaulieu’s RECOVER range delivers best-in-class performance on both fronts. These ground covers are the premium choice for all professional containerfields to create the optimal growing conditions for plants,” said Maarten Balcaen, Beaulieu Technical Textiles Sales Manager for Agrotextiles.

Visitors to GreenTech will discover Beaulieu’s extensive range of ground covers for all container fields and our solutions in climate control, growth stimulation and weed control.

“Our ground covers are long-lasting thanks to their high UV stability, and this means that customers are able to postpone replacement investments for longer. The CO2 savings of our solutions are also becoming increasingly important as ground cover is a part of the carbon calculation for new nursery installations. This makes Beaulieu’s solutions a win-win,” concluded Balcaen.

These so-called “forever chemicals” are considered hazardous to health and potentially carcinogenic, as they do not break down and remain in the environment permanently. Despite these risks, PFAS are still used in a wide range of products. More than 15 years ago, VAUDE made a strategic decision to gradually eliminate PFAS from all product categories.
