Trees and plant life are a great inclusion to have in public spaces, including schools both commercial and residential zones. However, with wandering roots and their thirst, roots can cause significant damage to infrastructure and buildings. They also heave up infrastructure creating an unsafe environment. To aid cracked pavements and broken pipes from root damage, Root Barrier^TM provides moisture and root barriers to help protect the surrounding environment around large trees and keep the plant life healthy and hydrated.

With complete root and moisture protection, the barriers are highly durable and flexible allowing them to stretch without breaking. By shielding buildings and infrastructure from tree roots, trees can remain intact in public spaces and not cause harm to surrounding developments. Root barriers allow the transformation of playgrounds from non-functional short lived play spaces to long lasting safe areas. A root barrier will reduce long term capital maintenance and injuries by the elimination of trip hazards.
