Why tree guards matter

Urban trees face heavy wear: bicycles, pets, vehicles, and public activity. Guards provide a robust barrier around young trunks, reducing damage and helping trees reach maturity. 

  • Steel and aluminium construction for strength and longevity.
  • Retrofit collars available for existing trees.
  • Modular options in a range of diameters, heights and finishes.
  • Compatible with soil cells, grilles and irrigation inlets.
  • Backed by CAD, BIM and specification support.
