Looking after it

Hose off soil splash when it builds up. Rubber needs no sealing or treatment.

Recycled Tyre RubberA second life for a material that does not break down
Rolls Straight OutNo trench, no spikes, no assembly
3 m x 11 cmOne roll covers three metres of bed edge

Roll it out and the mulch line stops needing topping up.

Recycled tyre rubber, 3 m long and 11 cm wide. No spikes, no trench, no annual replacement.

Loose mulch at a bed edge migrates. It washes onto the path, gets blown about, and needs topping up every season.

This gives you the mulch look as a permanent strip instead: a rubber border that stays where you put it.

It is made from recycled tyres, which is a genuinely useful destination for a material that otherwise sits in a pile for decades.

Installation is rolling it out. No trench to cut, no spikes to drive, no sections to interlock.

One roll is 3 m long and 11 cm wide.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

Bark mulch along a path edge looks right for about four months. Then rain moves it, feet kick it about, and by the following spring the neat dark strip is a thin scatter that needs another bag.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

A rubber border is the permanent version of the same look. It sits where you lay it, and it does not decompose, wash away or need replacing next year.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

The material is recycled tyre rubber. Tyres are notoriously difficult to dispose of, and grinding them into products like this is one of the few genuinely useful things to do with them, so the environmental argument here is a real one rather than decoration.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

It is the easiest product in this range to install by a wide margin. There is no trench, no cutting, no spikes and no interlocking. You unroll it along the line you want.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

That also makes it the right choice for a temporary or provisional edge. If you are still deciding where a path or a bed goes, a roll you can lift and move in a minute is worth more than a permanent installation you will regret.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

Two honest points. First, it is a surface strip rather than a barrier: it will not hold back a depth of gravel or stop grass roots the way a vertical steel or plastic profile does, because it lies flat rather than standing up. Second, the live listing did not publish a thickness, so we do not quote one. Contact the team if that matters before you order.

Rubber Mulch Bed Edging (3 m roll)

It is filed under plastic edging on this site because that is where the live store had it. Strictly it is rubber, and it behaves differently: more flexible, heavier for its size, and matte rather than shiny.

Not sure yet? That is fine.

You can change your mind. Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 you have 14 days from delivery to cancel for any reason, and a further 14 days to send it back in resaleable condition. We refund the price you paid, including standard delivery.

If it turns up faulty, damaged or not as described, that is on us. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 covers you, we pay the return postage, and you can have a repair, a replacement or your money back. Read the full detail on our refunds and returns page, or ask us anything before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is it made of?

Recycled rubber, made from tyres. It is rubber rather than plastic, despite the category it sits in.

How long is a roll?

3 m long and 11 cm wide.

How do I install it?

Roll it out along the line you want. There is no trench to cut, no spikes to drive and nothing to interlock.

Does it need pegging down?

No fixings are supplied or specified. If a section lifts in an exposed spot, spiral pegs from the accessories range will hold it.

Will it hold back gravel or bark?

No. It lies flat as a surface strip rather than standing up as a barrier. Retaining a depth of material is a job for the steel or plastic profiles.

Will it stop grass growing through?

It covers the strip it sits on, which suppresses growth underneath. It does not block roots at the edge the way a vertical profile does.

How thick is it?

A thickness is not published for this item. Contact the team and we will confirm it with the supplier.

Does it decompose like bark mulch?

No, and that is the point of it. Rubber does not break down, so there is no seasonal replenishment.

Is it environmentally friendly?

It is made from recycled tyres, which is a genuinely useful destination for a material that is otherwise difficult to dispose of. We make no wider environmental claim than that.

Will it smell of rubber?

Recycled rubber products can carry a rubber odour when new, particularly in hot sun. Nothing specific is published for this item.

Can I cut it to length?

Rubber cuts with a sharp knife. Cut on a board rather than on the lawn.

Can I join two rolls?

Lay them end to end. There is no interlock, so the joint is a butt joint and will be visible.

Will it fade in the sun?

No UV rating is published for this item. Recycled rubber generally weathers to a slightly lighter tone over years.

Is it heavy?

Rubber is heavy for its size, more so than the plastic edging. A weight is not published for this item.

Can I use it on a curve?

Yes. It is the most flexible product in the range, so curves are straightforward.

Is it safe for children's play areas?

It is sold as bed edging rather than as playground safety surfacing, which is a separate certified product category. We would not use it as impact protection.

Can I use it around a vegetable bed?

It is used as bed edging generally. If you have concerns about recycled rubber next to edible crops, the plastic and steel options avoid the question.

Will it blow away?

It is heavy enough to stay put in most positions. An exposed windy site may want pegs.

How does it compare with the plastic edging kit?

The kit stands upright and retains material. This lies flat and gives a mulch look. Different jobs entirely.

Can I lift it and move it?

Yes, very easily, which makes it good for a provisional edge while you decide where a path should go.

Does it need maintenance?

None. Hose off soil splash when it builds up.

Is it slippery when wet?

No slip rating is published. As with any smooth surface, take care if it is laid where people walk.

Is this a warehouse item?

No. It is a supplier stocked dropship line rather than one we hold ourselves.

Can I use it on a slope?

Yes, it follows contours well. On a steep slope pegs will stop it creeping downhill.

Will it stain the paving next to it?

No staining is reported for this item. Unlike corten there is no oxide run off.

How many rolls do I need?

Measure your run and divide by 3 m, then round up.

Can I use it as a path?

At 11 cm wide it is an edging strip rather than a path. It gives the look of a mulch path edge.

Does it come with a guarantee?

No specific product guarantee is offered on this item. Your statutory rights under EU consumer law apply, including the 14 day right to change your mind.

Why is it under plastic edging if it is rubber?

Because that is the category the live store filed it under and we kept the customer facing structure. The material is rubber and we say so on the page.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery is Europe wide and takes 5 to 7 days, after a 24 to 48 hour handling and processing time. A tracking number is emailed when the order ships.

Page summary

Mulch Rubber Border, also listed as a rubber mulch edging roll or recycled rubber mulch edge, sold by Steel Edging Company at steeledging.eu.com at EUR 79 per roll. Bed edging made from RECYCLED RUBBER sourced from tyres, supplied as a 3 m long roll 11 cm wide. It provides the appearance of a mulch strip along a bed or path edge as a permanent product, replacing loose bark mulch which washes away, gets kicked about and needs replenishing each season. Installation is simply rolling it out: no trench, no cutting, no spikes and no interlocking sections, which makes it the easiest product in this range to fit and a good choice for a provisional edge that may be moved. Recycled tyre rubber is a genuinely useful destination for a difficult waste material. Honest limitations: it is a SURFACE strip that lies flat rather than a vertical barrier, so it will not retain a depth of gravel or block grass roots the way an upright steel or plastic profile does, and no thickness is published for the item so none is quoted here. Note on categorisation: it is filed under plastic edging on this site because that is the category the live store used, but the material is rubber, which is more flexible, heavier for its size and matte in finish. This is a dropship line, stocked by the supplier rather than in the warehouse. Care: hose off soil splash; no sealing or treatment needed. Sold as a standard stock item, so the 14 day EU withdrawal right applies in full. Delivery Europe wide, free over EUR 100, otherwise EUR 25.
