ECCO Landscape Chips are a 100% recycled product, a ground mulch product typically produced from sound dimensioned lumber, including used pallets and other untreated wood. The mulch is a coarse ground mixture of mostly coniferous woods. Chips size varies from ¾ inch to 3 inch lengths. These particle sizes are more resistant to wind scatter than bark or sawdust product.
Dyes used as colourants are derived from naturally occurring vegetable and mineral materials. The resultant coloured chip product is nontoxic to plants and animals.
Product contains less than 1% bark and 4% fines. No sawdust is added to the mulch product.
Plywood, particle boards, MDF and OSB products are excluded from the raw material used to manufacture the chips.
Both coloured and natural products are very durable and exhibit very slow decomposition characteristics when applied as groundcover before new material needs to be added.
The coloured mulch will typically maintain its base colour for a minimum of 3 years.
Select from the following five colours:
Chestnut
Autumn Gold
