Protecting Trees Under Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs)

Tree Preservation Orders (TPOs) and other stringent planning conditions safeguard trees across the UK, requiring meticulous planning and construction methods from developers and contractors. Failing to protect these vital assets can lead to severe consequences, including prosecution or enforcement action, as any damage to tree roots or compaction of surrounding ground can have devastating long-term effects on the tree’s health.

At Geosynthetics Ltd, our Cellweb® TRP system provides the definitive solution. It is the only tree root protection system in the UK independently tested and proven to both effectively reduce soil compaction and allow for the continuation of healthy root development. Cellweb® TRP ensures comprehensive protection for tree roots, maintaining the natural aesthetics of wooded areas while safely enabling the development of access roads and footpaths through Root Protection Areas (RPAs), even accommodating heavy construction traffic.

Our dedicated Tree Root Protection Team at Geosynthetics offers unwavering support throughout your project, from the initial design stage and technical recommendations to crucial on-site guidance during installation. They are your trusted resource for all sites with TPOs in place.
