Root Management
Guide root growth, protect surrounding infrastructure and support healthy urban tree establishment
Manage Root Growth
Around Infrastructure
Urban tree roots follow available space, moisture and oxygen. In constrained streetscapes, this can bring them into conflict with sidewalks, utilities, foundations and other built infrastructure unless root development is considered early in the design.
GreenBlue Urban root management systems direct growth into suitable soil and away from sensitive areas, helping protect surrounding infrastructure while giving trees the conditions they need to establish and mature.
Root Management Products
Different sites call for different approaches to root guidance and exclusion. Our range of root barriers and modular guidance systems helps project teams manage root growth around sidewalks, utilities and other below-ground constraints.
