LakeMat® is made of a proprietary fabric that is soft, pliable and comfortable to walk on. It feels like a carpet made of felt. Its unique fabric matrix is porous enough to allow 90 gallons of water to flow though a one foot square section per minute, yet allows less than 1 percent of available sunlight to reach aquatic weeds beneath it. The unique LakeMat® fabric is light yet unbelievably strong. A standard
LakeMat® that is 12 1/2 wide by 30 feet long (with weights included)
weighs about 48 pounds, yet it takes 130 pounds of pressure to puncture
it. It’s a truly amazing, high-tech fabric. The weight system is built
into the LakeMat® fabric, which is the only fabric approved for use by
the Department of Environmental Quality for aquatic purposes. |
