 Cover greens with Curlex Green Savers in fall and start golfing earlier in spring...

 

Curlex Green Savers are natural excelsior blankets that provide winter protection against drying winds, frost penetration, grass desiccation, and freezing cold on all golf course greens.  Curlex Green Savers maintain a more constant surface temperaturGreen_Savers_Early_Golfe and allow excellent air circulation.  Curlex Green Savers minimize heat build up and the freeze thaw cycle, which helps to establish quality greens early in the season, thus extending the playing season by two to three weeks. 

Curlex Green Savers are furnished in rolls with polyethylene wrapping to protect against the elements prior to installation, and may be ordered in Master-Paks to minimize material handling requirements.
