RootCell - Soil Cells for Small Tree Pits

The worlds first soil cell system brought to market in 2001 as a soil-structure system for small tree pits.

The RootCell system originally developed in 2001 following consultation with landscape architects, local authorities and leading tree experts. The concept is simple topsoil is the most favourable, natural rooting medium.

RootCells provide the load-bearing structure preventing the soil from becoming compacted and lifeless. Furthermore, the long term root zone can be maintained by incorporating RootRain irrigation/aeration in the design.
