Flat moss – wavy-leaved cotton moss

Flat moss, a.k.a. wavy-leaved cotton moss or ‘Plagiothecium undulatum’, is quite common in Europe.

As its name suggests, flat moss is quite flat: it is approx. 1 to 2 centimetres thick. We prepare and colour our flat moss using innovative techniques so as to make it permanently soft, fire-retardant, dirt-repellent and colourfast. The available colours are listed below.

Properties of MossFactory flat moss

  • Suitable for making moss walls/paintings.
  • Optimum quality, treated through and through, and therefore very durable and fire retardant.
  • Moss has a natural scent. This scent is intensified after preparing the moss. The scent of prepared moss gradually decreases and is completely harmless.
  • We use colour pigments as part of our preparation process to ensure that our moss retains its colour for a long time. However, bright sunlight or other bright light can cause discolouration.
  • Since moss is a natural product, colour nuances occur.
  • To be fixed with glue.
  • Do not spray the moss with water or any other liquids.
  • Not suitable for outdoor use.
  • Colourants in the moss rub off when touched. Clean with soap and water.
  • Low relative humidity (below 40%) will cause the moss to temporarily become a little drier. Once the humidity increases, it will become soft again.
