Quick answer
Tub Grind Mulch – Coarse is an organic, eco-friendly mulch made from recycled wood waste. The coarse grind lets air circulate around roots and water drain away, which helps fight root rot while keeping moisture and drainage in balance. Use it on larger plant beds, garden paths and areas with high moisture demands. It breaks down slowly, so you reapply it less often. Lay it about 50–75mm deep.

About the product
How this mulch performs
Our tub grind mulch is made from recycled wood waste, an organic, sustainable way to cover garden beds. The coarse grind lets air and water move through, giving plants good growing conditions. It suits larger beds, garden paths and areas that need a lot of moisture.
Its chunky texture lets air reach plant roots and helps water drain away, which protects against root rot. If your garden is full of plants that are susceptible to root rot, this is the best way to balance moisture with drainage.
It breaks down slowly, so it outlasts finer mulches and releases nutrients into the soil over a longer period. In practice, that means fewer top-ups.
