Terram Geocell Panels Tree Root Protection

Terram geocell protects tree root systems close to the surface by ensuring the roots beneath are protected from vehicle loads by confining the sub-base and stabilising the ground. Infill is confined and ensures that downward forces are spread laterally, reducing pressure on the sub-base and avoiding compaction which can potentially damage tree roots. Varying degrees of protection can be afforded by selecting alternative in-fill materials. Seeded topsoil provides protection for less exposed areas. Protection may be increased by introducing vegetation such as small shrubs.For greater protection, a granular in-fill can be used in certain circumstances. Appropriate in-fills can also be chosen to give a desired surface appearance.The standard Cellular System for erosion protection, Geocell, is normally suitable for use on slopes with an incline of up to 45 degrees (1:1 slopes). If the slope angle is greater than 45 degrees, additional considerations need to be given to the design of the cellular system and the standard geocell may not be suitable. In these instances please contact us for further assessment
