Tree Root Management with iglube Modules

Challenge

Managing tree roots in urban environments can be difficult, as roots often interfere with pavements, sidewalks, and infrastructure. Traditional methods may fail to provide adequate support and protection.

Solution

The iglube modular system offers an effective solution for tree root management. The interlocking, high-strength modules create a supportive structure that helps manage and direct root growth. Key features include:

• Supportive Structure: The modules provide a stable foundation for tree roots, preventing them from disrupting pavements or infrastructure.
• Open Internal Design: Allows for root expansion while maintaining structural integrity. The 95% open volume supports healthy root growth.
• Versatile Application: Can be used in various urban settings, including tree pits and sidewalk extensions.

Outcome

By using iglube modules, urban areas experienced improved root management with minimised disruption to pavements and infrastructure. The system supports healthy root growth while protecting surrounding surfaces, enhancing both the longevity of urban landscapes and the overall aesthetic.
