Green-tech’s TreeParker® is an urban tree pit support and SuDS system that supports the paving above while protecting the organic tree soil from compaction. This allows use of a friable, organic topsoil, as opposed to a less organic structural tree soil.
The system comprises rigid, modular units that take their core structural support from the formation ground in the base of the tree pit. A range of six different height options are available, making TreeParker® adaptable and versatile.
Features and benefits:
- Six height options: 400 mm, 600 mm, 800 mm, 1.0 m, 1.2 m, 1.5 m.

- Rigid support legs – no need for side walls.
- Vertical loading up to 56 t/m² – 15 tonne single axle weight.
- 100% recycled materials.
- 95% void for rooting volume.
- Large aperture removable inspection/ aeration deck.
- Industry credibility - tried and tested system throughout Europe.
- Allows use of a soft, organic topsoil in the tree pit without risk of compaction.
- Fast, easy assembly saves time and costs – can be installed by one person.
- No side walls mean easy integration with utilities/services.
- Height options mean no need to stack multiple units.
- Spacers and stand-alone options mean the system can be fine-tuned to the exact dimensions required.
- 95% open void means large area of soil filled rooting volume.
- Loadings support vehicular or pedestrian traffic.
- Can link up to drainage channels to act as water attenuation/ passive irrigation system.
- Can be retrofitted to extend rooting volume.
