Tree Root Protection Geocell

Bodcell™ tree root protection geocell is a permeable cellular confinement solution for ground stabilization where tree roots are required to be protected in a tree protection zone. The use of Bodcell™ stabilization cells allows the construction of a road, access route or driveway as the system not only stabilizes the ground, but ensures that the roots beneath are protected from heavy vehicle forces on the surface.
 

Bodcell™ is manufactured from a strong permeable geotextile fabric and is supplied flat packed in panels. It is easily opened to form the required cell structure and is pinned using our metal fixing pins.
 

Bodcell™ tree root protection geocell ensures that vehicles downward forces are distributed laterally reducing loads on the underlying soils. Without the Bodcell™ cellular system, tree roots would be damaged due to the compaction and rutting of the soil. This scenario can result in the death of the tree.
 

A geotextile layer should be used in the construction of BodCell™ to ensure that the cell contents are retained and to fill material doesn't mix with the sub-base or sub-soil. 
 

Bodcell™ provides ground reinforcement as it confines fill material within its strong flexible permeable cell walls, providing a a stable base an even load distribution. structure in order to provide a stable base for traffic and an even load distribution. The benefit of Bodcell™ is that the permeable geotextile material allows lateral movement of air and water, thus allowing vegetative growth at the surface as well as allowing surface water to reach the tree roots.
