  • Fulfills all Arboricultural Advisory and Information Service guidelines for root barriers
  • Deeper root growth improves drought tolerance and tree stability
  • Guides roots away from areas vulnerable to de-icing salts
  • Prevents pavement ‘root heave’ effectively eliminating trip hazards
  • Ease of installation in virtually all situations with no specialist equipment required

Features

  • Available in standard 600mm (24″), 1.0m (40″), 1.5m (4’11”) and 2.0m (6’7″) depth rolls, up to 6m (20′) deep rolls to special order.
  • Available in 1.0mm (3/64″) and 2.0mm (5/64″) thicknesses
  • Supplied in roll form and cut to order in 10m increments to minimise waste
