Square-Peg BIO™ Degradable Barbed Pegs (16cm) provide an eco-conscious alternative to conventional plastic ground fixings. Made from a bio-based polymer that naturally degrades over time, these pegs are specially designed for securing mulch mats, weed control fabrics, and biodegradable geotextiles. Ideal for environmentally sensitive landscaping, woodland planting, and conservation projects focused on sustainability and biodiversity.

Each peg features a square head that allows for easier and faster installation using a hammer, while the barbed shaft ensures a firm grip in the soil—even in wet or windy conditions. Designed for single-use with no removal required, they reduce labour and maintenance costs, making them perfect for rewilding and low-impact land management schemes.
