Materials and Construction
The Wooden Tree Shelter consists of 4 mm untreated wooden shingles. These wooden elements are securely connected using a natural woven jute band.
The thickness of the wood provides an excellent balance between strength, protection, and durability. The construction protects young trees against damage while the open structure allows sufficient natural light and airflow for a healthy growing environment.
The materials have been carefully selected for their quality and sustainability.
Wood
The wooden shingles have a thickness of 4 mm and are made from untreated timber sourced from responsibly managed forests.
By using untreated wood, the natural properties of the material are preserved. After its useful life, the wood can naturally return to the environment through biodegradation.
Jute Connection
The wooden elements are connected using a woven natural jute band.
Jute is a strong natural fibre that is highly suitable for outdoor applications and sustainable nature development projects.
Metal Fixing
Metal staples are used to secure the construction.
These staples are free from heavy metals, ensuring a reliable connection while maintaining the sustainable character of the product.

Protection and Function
The Wooden Tree Shelter protects young trees during the most important stage after planting.
Its main functions include:
- Protection against browsing damage from wildlife
- Protection of the tree stem against external damage
- Supporting healthy tree development
- Reducing losses in young planting projects
The open construction allows sufficient light and ventilation to reach the tree. This creates a natural environment in which young trees can establish and grow successfully.
Installation

Correct installation ensures that the shelter remains stable while still providing enough space for the tree to continue growing naturally.
