Lego-like, patent pending technology, TreeTube is made of plastics and steel, making it a light, easy to handle and install system. Lego-like, patent pending technology, TreeTube is made of plastics and steel, making it a light, easy to handle and install system.

Trees, usually surrounded by hard surfaces, have limited sub-surface rooting spaces in the urban environment, hindering healthy and sustainable tree growth. With its lego-like patent-pending technology, designed and developed to facilitate the growth of healthy trees in urban environments, its modular system enables root growth under pavements and sidewalks. The modular root structure system is manufactured from plastic and steel, making it light, easy to handle and simple to install.

Non-compacted soil & substrate to enable healthy root system development
Improved water availability by a designated water system and sufficient drainage
Unique aeration system – cost-effective
Directs roots to evolve in the desired direction without impacting sidewalk and infrastructure
Eliminates pavement sinking and reduces sidewalk repair caused by root damage
Allows for a moderate & controlled root system temperature
Applicable to local loading standards
Safe compatibility with urban infrastructure due to its modular and adjustable system
Simple and easy to install

TreeTube Root Director (ttrd)

The TT Root Director is designed to guide tree roots below street level and the substrate

TreeTube Root Protector (trcp)

The TT Curb Protector is designed to reinforce the surrounding tree pit and prevent the surging of curbstones and paving. TTRP also directs tree roots towards the desired rooting space.

TreeTube A (TTA)

TreeTube A provides uncompacted tree rooting space while supporting traffic loads. The core unit caters for large volumes of non-compact high-quality soil for trees in hard-surface environments. The structure is based on a tubular strong body, designed to meet the trees physiological needs. At up to 4m’ long the system is composed of an integral vertical sheet barrier system, containing the root ball, and irrigation equipment while providing aeration.

TreeTube AN (TTAN)

Within the core unit (TTA), is a 60cm diameter strong tube welded perpendicular to the main TTA body increasing root space and encouraging roots to progress perpendicular to the planting ditch.

TreeTube X (TTX)

In this system, two tubular bodies are placed perpendicular to each other to form a plus shape. This way, tree roots can grow evenly, 360 degrees under a paved square or car park.

TreeTube C (TTC)

Contained within the core system (TTA) are additional tubular extensions to enlarge planting volume. In this system, several tubes snap together in parallel providing a generous amount of planting soil and rooting space.
