Whiptec Tree Shelters - Standard


The Whiptec tree shelter tubes are rigid, twin-walled, cylindrical tubes with a flared upper rim to limit bark abrasion. The Whiptec shelters create a micro-climate for the trees resulting in stronger initial establishment and a much higher tree survival rate. These micro-climatic conditions also help to increase air moisture within the tree shelter tube which can reduce water stress, ensuring the tree can last longer during drought conditions. Our Whiptec trees shelters not only help trees to develop stronger roots, but they provide vital protection from browsing animals and herbicide applications. Suitable for a variety of applications including forestry, landscaping and on road verges.

Whiptec Tree Shelters - Ventilated


The Whiptec ventilated tree shelter tubes are constructed from the same material as the standard Whiptec shelters but with one main difference. The Whiptec ventilated shelters have perforated holes for the top two-thirds of the tube. These vents provide an added benefit by helping aid trunk development by allowing them to adjust to the natural wind-rock of the area. These shelters are designed for more exposed planting sites where there is a large contrast between external conditions and the conditions within the tree tube. The ventilated top half acclimatises the tree to potential harsh winds and the environment whilst the bottom third of the tube protects the tree from the use of herbicides being sprayed in the surrounding area. Suitable for use in forestry, landscaping, on road verges and for many other applications.
