Invasive plants such as bamboo spread widely and can cause massive damage to buildings and the infrastructure. The TenCate Bidim® Bamboo Stop Pro root barrier provides natural and simple protection.

Damage to buildings and infrastructure caused by invasive plants 

Invasive plants such as bamboo are an increasingly popular choice as privacy screens in private residences and public spaces. However, with their very densely interwoven, hard roots these plants pose a serious risk to the safety of infrastructure and buildings: Their stolons move horizontally and sometimes infiltrate large stretches of paved paths until they make their way back to the surface – often resulting in severe damage to houses or walls. 

To proactively protect infrastructure and private buildings from damage caused by invasive plants, TenCate Bidim® Bamboo Stop Pro is a highly effective solution.
