Arborsystem - a tree grille system engineered to make a difference

During the last two decades, Greenleaf has been developing

innovative products to assist trees below ground in their battle to

establish and grow in hostile urban environments. Now with the

Arborsystem Tree Grille range, that same attention to detail has

been turned to tree pit surround systems.

Arborsystem Tree Surrounds are engineered to an extremely high

standard under rigorous quality controls. Greenleaf is an ISO 9002

company and takes product development and quality seriously.

Consequently, the range detailed in this brochure represents the

latest technology in tree surrounds. Illustrated are just some of the

design features integral to the Arborsystem brand that have lifted

our range to new levels of excellence.

Design – our product development

team have worked hard to ensure that

even the most standard designs work

well, look smart and give a trouble free

life. Research and trials have helped

us to arrive at the most effective and

robust coatings where applicable for

our product range.

Arborsystem support frames have

involved many hours of development

to produce a design that is easy to

install, cost effective to manufacture

and unobtrusive in use. These frames

are engineered to the highest

standards and can be rated to handle

different loading requirements.

Integral Features – These high

quality cast grilles can incorporate

integral apertures for irrigation

aeration inlets and uplighters. Twist

lock aperture secures the fittings to

avoid theft or sub surface settlement

differentiation.

10.

Inner ring design allows for a neat

and professional central opening. This

gives additional tensile strength as

well as providing fixing points for the

vertical steel guard system.

Arborsystem Root Rain Precinct

irrigation inlet fitting – another example

of products engineered for purpose –

heavy duty cast LM6 material giving a

permanent access point for water and

air, so vital for the tree. Plus, retaining

bracket to ensure simple installation and

alignment of irrigation pipe.

Built for strength, these tree surrounds

are manufactured to withstand the

everyday traffic and loadings expected

of urban hardscapes.

Our product advisors can work with you

to ensure that the grille you select is

suited to the types of traffic you are

expecting to use the area.

All our DTS grille range are designed to

withstand any reasonable traffic overrun.

Tree GrillesFully integrated DTS grille systems

11.

The standard Arborsystem tree grille range shown here is designed to

integrate with a variety of different settings. Choice of design will be

influenced by the following aspects:

Arborsytem grilles integrate with below ground root management,

irrigation, aeration and guying systems. It is important that the below

ground aspect of tree pit design is given careful consideration at the

design stage. Tree literate design will pay dividends for years to come in

the form of healthy, attractive trees. For details on how to provide simply

for the trees' long term requirements, turn to the last pages of this

Vertical Tree GuardsProtection in the urban setting

13.

Urban spaces represent a challenging environment for forest

plants to cope with. The Arborsystem vertical guard range is

designed to complement the tree surround system.

These guards, manufactured and finished to a very high standard,

are not only designed to look aesthetically attractive as design

elements in their own right, but fulfil a vital role in defending trees

from careless abuse and even gratuitous vandalism.
