| Why
use aluminum edging?
Aluminum
is a durable, easily formed, lightweight metal that is perfect
for landscape use. Aluminum is nontoxic, has excellent corrosion
resistance, and is 100% recyclable.
Because
aluminum is a tough metal that will not rust, rot, or crack, it
is extremely well suited to resist the demands of Mother Nature,
professional lawn maintenance, and home power equipment.
When
properly installed aluminum edgings and restraints will never need
to be replaced and will remain beautiful for the life of your project.
