Tree Staple™Below-Grade Stabilizers
New trees
and shrubs need help.
They must remain stable to develop a proper root system. Stake and wire
systems require a lengthy installation, need to be adjusted, and must
be removed within 12 to 24 months after installation.
Tree Staple
stabilizers are…simpler
The unique design of our stabilizers permits quick and easy installation
(one person using a simple sledgehammer can install the product in less
than 1 minute) and eliminates the need for removal.
Less expensive
Contractors save money by getting more work done in less time and do not
have to return to the site to adjust or remove anything. How much can
you save on your next project?
Better
looking
Likely the greatest benefit is that the Tree Staple™ system works
without being seen. The below-grade feature of the Tree Staple stabilizer
means that immediately upon installation, you have a finished, mature
look to your new landscape.
Safer
And if the aesthetics alone are not enough of an enticement, think in
terms of safety. Tree Staple stabilizers eliminate the danger of exposed
stakes and wires that might injure children or pets.
And kinder
to trees
Essentially, stake and wire systems strangle trees (called "girdling"),
cause bark damage, introduce unnatural stress on the trunk and inhibit
proper growth. Below-grade stabilizing lets a tree move naturally, to
grow properly and be more resistant to the forces of nature. Read
research showing why Tree Staples are better for trees and shrubs.
Sizes
Tree Staple stablizers come in 4 standard sizes to meet the needs of transplanting
2 inch to 8 inch caliper trees. As a general rule of thumb, stabilizers
should extend 12 inches below the root ball. When needed get even more
holding power by increasing the size or number of Tree Staples.
