Formed in 1985 the company has primarily acted as
forestry consultants and contractors to private woodland estates,
but as a result of disenchantment with the lack of choice in tree
protection we have over the past 5 years developed and trialled
the British Continental Fine Mesh Shelter as an alternative to tube
type protection.
Continental Fine Mesh Shelters are manufactured under contract
by a leading plastic mesh manufacturer in the UK, Balance Fine Mesh,
and Eclipse Shelters are made under a similar arrangement with an
alternative manufacturer, within the EEC.
In 1999 the company invested in a new production line in partnership
with an existing family owned plastics company to manufacture Spiral
Shelters.
Quality of manufacture is foremost - all products are used ‘in-house’
and trialled extensively throughout the UK. We feel that this gives
us a leading edge on our competitors.
As foresters, we are primarily interested in growing trees and
believe that the cost of protection is a necessary evil.
We continue to be amazed at how many high-cost tree shelters are
currently used, many of which give rise to excessive maintenance
costs, often needing to be cut off the trees they set out to protect. |
