Tree Shelters & Guards

Still using tubes?
Why not move forward to lower maintenance & economic tree protection?

Numerous advantages:

• Economic – far cheaper than tube protection, when maintenance considerations taken into account.
• Both the ‘Standard’ Balance and Continental: have 120, diameters to give longer lasting tree protection – much larger diameter compared to tubes.
• Improved visual appearance – no more cemeteries! Improved tree growth – a more natural growth rate will allow trees to have stronger stems, the micro-environment will, however encourage tree growth upwards as the mesh resists lateral growth.
• No moisture build-up within Shelter, as with tubes, prior to tree break-out, giving rise to weak deformed stems as a result of strangulation and moisture build-up.
• Less wind resistance, therefore less wind blown Shelters to straighten.
• Less woolly aphid problems for Beech.
