Terra-BARRIER™ RB-20 is a 20-mil, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheet designed to effectively arrest root penetration and redirect roots to a horizontal growth plane. This process helps lock in vegetation, preventing root damage to the waterproofing membrane and preventing root intrusion into green roof and planter applications, while simultaneously increasing resistance to wind uplift forces.
