Tackifibers™ are 1/2" polypropylene fibers specially formulated to enhance the performance of hydraulically-applied protein-rich mulch and soil binder/tackifier seeding slurries.
When added to standard slurry mixtures, Tackifibers create a highly tenacious, stable mulch mat. This durable mat mechanically bonds tightly to the soil surface and:
- Protects germinating seeds from wind and water erosion.
- Allows the soil to breath.
- Provides structural integrity to the binder slurry.
Increased
Holding Power
Tackifibers greatly enhance the holding performance of
mulches and tackifiers by providing mechanical cross bonding
of fibers. Unlike short term, water-soluble tackifiers, Tackifibers persist under prolonged periods of wet weather.
Holds
For Full Season
Photo-degradable Tackifibers are designed to hold the
soil for a full growing season. As photo-degradation progresses,
the fibers are broken down into shorter and shorter segments,
which become part of the soil and then undergo biological
degradation.
Tackifibers Advantages
- Reduces bulk! Maintains predetermined holding performance with less mulch/tackifier.
- High tenacity, even in wet conditions.
- Consistent, long fiber length.
- Enhances the holding performance of mulch/tackifiers.
- Increases spray distance.
- Reduces paper mulch mache effect.
Application
Instructions
Apply Tackifibers at a rate
of 20 lbs [40 lbs] per
acre. While loading hydroseeder tank with water + organic
soil amendments + binders, and with agitator in operation,
slowly add Tackifibers to tank
by vigorously shaking and dispersing
handfuls of fibers. This will prevent clumping of the fibers
and potential plugging of the equipment. Once hydroseeder
is driven to seeding site, add seed.

Ease
Of Use
Tackifibers are economical
and easy to use, improving spraying performance while providing
tremendous binding power
with minimal bulk. Excellent for use in tandem with the new
environmentally-sensitive, heavy-duty soil binder Atlas
SoilLok, eliminating the
need for wood fiber mulch.
Available in 20-lb bags.
