Water Resistance | Outdoor gardens, wet climates | Industry Standard: 500mm hydrostatic head (ASTM D3313) Our Base: 750mm▲ Our Advanced: 1000mm▲▲ (IPX4 rated) | Prevents waterlogging in heavy rain; protects root systems | Advanced version may require reinforced installation for extreme conditions |
UV Resistance | Prolonged sun exposure (e.g., rooftop gardens) | Industry Standard: 500 hours UV exposure (ASTM G154) Our Base: 800 hours▲ Our Advanced: 1,200 hours▲▲ (5-year warranty) | Maintains integrity in direct sunlight; reduces material degradation | Higher UV resistance increases cost by ~30% for Advanced tier |
Material Thickness | Heavy-duty applications (e.g., nurseries) | Industry Standard: 0.3mm Our Base: 0.5mm▲ Our Advanced: 1.0mm▲▲ (ISO 3801 verified) | Enhanced durability for high-traffic areas; prevents tearing | Thicker mats may require custom cutting tools for installation |
Chemical Resistance | Chemical-intensive farming (e.g., pesticide zones) | Industry Standard: Resists 10+ chemicals (ASTM D543) Our Base: 25+ chemicals▲ Our Advanced: 50+ chemicals▲▲ (ASTM F739 permeation test) | Safely used with harsh agrochemicals; no degradation risk | Advanced version may reduce breathability slightly for certain crops |
Durability | Long-term use (e.g., permanent garden beds) | Industry Standard: 2-year lifespan Our Base: 3 years▲ Our Advanced: 5 years▲▲ (ISO 12233 abrasion test) | Reduces replacement frequency; cost-effective over time | Initial investment for Advanced tier is higher than competitors |
Weight (GSM) | Lightweight applications (e.g., rooftop gardens) | Industry Standard: 250 GSM Our Base: 200 GSM▲ Our Advanced: 300 GSM▲▲ (ISO 3801 verified) | Base version is easy to install; Advanced offers reinforced stability | Heavier Advanced mats may require structural support for elevated surfaces |
