Applegate Fiber - Polymer Fiber.
Applegate Fiber
Applegate Fiber, is specially coated to improve the bonding strength of Applegate hydro-seeding mulches. Applegate Fiber, improves the performance of hydro-seeding mulches by providing a mechanical adhesion of fibers resulting from the fibers long length. This reduces the need for chemical tackifiers, and extends the longevity of fiber mulch hydration.
