Growpod Tree Guards - Biodegradable and Weed Suppressing

Incorporating an efficient one step weed protection system, designed to increase seedling survival rates, and reduce establishment and maintenance costs of tree planting projects.

Sustainable

  • 100% biodegradable with a field life of up to two years
  • Suitable for organic farming projects
  • Reduced herbicide use
  • No risk to terrestrial and aquatic wildlife from plastic guard residues
  • Australian designed and manufactured.

Better seedling survival rates

  • Prevents seedling deaths caused by competition with weeds.
  • Reduces risk of herbicide damage from slashing or brush cutting during maintenance
  • Provides protection to seedlings from browsing animals.
  • Provides protection to seedling from frosts and other extreme weather conditions.

Cost saving

  • Simple installation - lower costs and higher productivity
  • Efficient, one step weed protection.
  • No weed growth within the tree guard to slow down maintenance activities.
  • Reduces maintenance and in some situations removes the task altogether.
  • Biodegradable - No labour-intensive cost to remove old plastic guards from planting area.

Location flexibility

  • Ideal for use in riparian zones, flood plains and wetlands.
  • Ideal for use on remote sites with limited access.
  • Broad acre and small-scale projects.
  • Ideal for organic growing.
  • Suitable for land care, farming, mining, rehabilitation, roadside planting, landscaping, forestry, bush regeneration, and government agencies.
