- Horticultural Fleece is fully UV stabilized, giving the fleece an extended lifespan

Provided proper application and handling of the fleece, it can be used over several seasons. After its use, it can be processed via traditional recycling systems, leaving no harmful toxins or heavy metal residue after breakdown
