Recycled Rubber Tree Surrounds from StoneSet

recycled material for porous tree surrounds

StoneSet have launched a new product for porous tree surrounds which incorporates over 50% recycled materials in the form of shredded tyres and recycled glass.

A recycled rubber tree surround offers additional benefits in two areas. The first is the re-use of waste materials. Each tree pit will contain a blend of at least 50% recycled materials. The tree pit is a blend of crushed Australian rock, (very hard wearing and attractive in a dark grey), old tyres reclaimed and shredded to a granule and finally recycled glass produced by crushing and tumbling (to remove sharp edges) old bottles. The second benefit is the increased flexibility the rubber brings to the product to allow for movement without cracking.

The final product is a surface that will offer fantastic flexibility to move with the tree, a high void content to maintain water and air penetration to the root ball and a hard wearing finish to with stand the daily traffic in the urban environment.

StoneSet products are widely used across Australia and is the preferred choice of many councils and architects for tree surrounds, footpaths and porous paving.
