amerfiber2American Fiber™ is Fuquay’s trade name for our proprietary recipe hydro-mulch product. Hydro-mulching is a planting process that uses a slurry of seed and cellulose fiber mulch. Depending on the application, the slurry often includes other ingredients such as fertilizer, soil stabilization agents, green dye and other additives.

It is transported in a tank and sprayed over prepared ground in a uniform layer. This process is used to introduce fast-growing vegetation to new construction areas, on recently disturbed ground, and on burned wilderness areas after a wildfire.

amerfiber1Hydro-mulching is an alternative to the traditional process of “broadcasting” or sowing dry seed. The mulch in the hydro-seed mixture helps maintain the moisture level of the seed and seedlings. It promotes quick germination and inhibits soil erosion.

What’s extra special about Fuquay’s American Fiber mulch is that we only source clean newsprint for our mulch body. Unlike other manufacturers, our mulch contains no stray plastic or metal shavings that might clog your spray unit. You can be assured of a fast, clean, clogless application that gets your crew done and onto the next job. American Fiber is your choice for the most efficient hydro-mulch on the market.
