Forest floor mat (kuntta) is a natural and beautiful material for covering yards and other green areas. It consists of natural forest dwarf shrubs such as lingonberry, blueberry, and heather. Beneath the dwarf shrubs there are layers of mosses and lichens.
Why Is Forest Floor Mat a Good Material?
- Low maintenance. During the first summer season it needs to be watered, but after that it thrives without regular care.
- An ecological choice. It does not require fertilization, and maintaining it does not consume energy.
- Beautiful and natural. It brings the feeling of the forest even into urban environments. Forest vegetation has also been shown to reduce stress.
- Stormwater management. It absorbs and stores rainwater and helps prevent flooding. For this reason, it can be a good alternative to paving or asphalt. Forest floor mat can also be installed on roofs.
What Makes High-Quality Forest Floor Mat?
We have long experience working with forest floor mat and know what good-quality forest floor mat looks like.
- It has an even and sufficiently dense cover of dwarf shrubs. Such vegetation looks attractive immediately and establishes well after installation.
- It has a sufficiently thick base layer, which allows it to root properly in its new location and supports the growth of moss.
- It contains no grass. If grass is present in the turf, it will soon spread and take over the entire moss turf.
