Arborsystem - a tree grille system engineered to make a difference
During the last two decades, Greenleaf has been developing
innovative products to assist trees below ground in their battle to
establish and grow in hostile urban environments. Now with the
Arborsystem Tree Grille range, that same attention to detail has
been turned to tree pit surround systems.
Arborsystem Tree Surrounds are engineered to an extremely high
standard under rigorous quality controls. Greenleaf is an ISO 9002
company and takes product development and quality seriously.
Consequently, the range detailed in this brochure represents the
latest technology in tree surrounds. Illustrated are just some of the
design features integral to the Arborsystem brand that have lifted
our range to new levels of excellence.
Design – our product development
team have worked hard to ensure that
even the most standard designs work
well, look smart and give a trouble free
life. Research and trials have helped
us to arrive at the most effective and
robust coatings where applicable for
our product range.
Arborsystem support frames have
involved many hours of development
to produce a design that is easy to
install, cost effective to manufacture
and unobtrusive in use. These frames
are engineered to the highest
standards and can be rated to handle
different loading requirements.
Integral Features – These high
quality cast grilles can incorporate
integral apertures for irrigation
aeration inlets and uplighters. Twist
lock aperture secures the fittings to
avoid theft or sub surface settlement
differentiation.

Inner ring design allows for a neat
and professional central opening. This
gives additional tensile strength as
well as providing fixing points for the
vertical steel guard system.
Arborsystem Root Rain Precinct
irrigation inlet fitting – another example
of products engineered for purpose –
heavy duty cast LM6 material giving a
permanent access point for water and
air, so vital for the tree. Plus, retaining
bracket to ensure simple installation and
alignment of irrigation pipe.
Built for strength, these tree surrounds
are manufactured to withstand the
everyday traffic and loadings expected
of urban hardscapes.
Our product advisors can work with you
to ensure that the grille you select is
suited to the types of traffic you are
expecting to use the area.
All our DTS grille range are designed to
withstand any reasonable traffic overrun.

The standard Arborsystem tree grille range shown here is designed to
integrate with a variety of different settings. Choice of design will be
influenced by the following aspects:
Arborsytem grilles integrate with below ground root management,
irrigation, aeration and guying systems. It is important that the below
ground aspect of tree pit design is given careful consideration at the
design stage. Tree literate design will pay dividends for years to come in
the form of healthy, attractive trees. For details on how to provide simply
for the trees' long term requirements, turn to the last pages of this

Vertical Tree GuardsProtection in the urban setting

Urban spaces represent a challenging environment for forest
plants to cope with. The Arborsystem vertical guard range is
designed to complement the tree surround system.
These guards, manufactured and finished to a very high standard,
are not only designed to look aesthetically attractive as design
elements in their own right, but fulfil a vital role in defending trees
from careless abuse and even gratuitous vandalism.
