Eko-Brim Invisible Edging 1000x50x80mm

What is the Eko-Brim 50 mm invisible edging used for and how does it work?

The Eko-Brim plastic invisible edging with an L-profile, a height of 50 mm and a base width of 80 mm, is designed for the discreet division of various garden surfaces. It separates lawns, decorative gravel, bark beds, and both interlocking and large-format paving. With a wall thickness of 5 mm and a weight of 0.47 kg, it creates a stable edging border without the need for excavation work. It allows comfortable mowing of the lawn right up to the mower's wheels directly at the edge of the strip.

How does the integrated Eko-Brim connecting lock work and how do you connect it?

The connecting mechanism links the one-meter sections into a single unit that withstands soil tension caused by frost and inaccessible terrain. The lock keeps the sections firmly in place without any play throughout the material's lifespan. During installation, there is no need to mechanically adjust or grind the lock.

INSTALLATION WARNING:

NEVER MODIFY, CUT, OR GRIND THE CONNECTING LOCK IF IT DOES NOT FIT FREELY. IT IS ENOUGH TO USE A RUBBER MALLET FOR A PERFECT CONNECTION AND HIT IT CORRECTLY ;-). The pieces will fit firmly together and form a monolithic joint without risk of damaging the plastic.

How to shape the edging into curves and bends?

In its unbent state, the strip is rigid and maintains a straight line. If you need to create beds in curves, circles, or waves, simply use tin snips or pliers to cut the reinforcing plastic ribs on the underside of the base. Once cut, the edging becomes flexible and can be shaped into the desired curve while retaining its 50 mm height.

How to correctly choose and dose anchoring pins during installation?

Eko-Brim is anchored to the ground using plastic or steel pins. For soft garden soil, the original Eko-Brim pins or alternative 25 cm plastic pins are intended. For rocky and clay-based ground, steel pins are recommended. The number of pins depends on the complexity of the line:

• For straight unloaded sections use 3 pins per meter (1 pc of edging).
• For curved sections and shaped bends use 4 to 5 pins per meter due to material tension.
• For separating load-bearing areas and laying interlocking pavers apply 5 pins per meter .

What properties does the eco-friendly Eko-Brim material have?

The edging is made of recycled plastic, which is frost-resistant, chemically neutral, and resistant to UV radiation. Unlike concrete edging, it does not absorb soil moisture and does not overheat the surrounding area, thus preventing the edge of the lawn from drying out. After prolonged use, the edging is 100% recyclable and easy to dismantle for garden modifications.
