The demand to anchor trees without unsightly stakes or guy wires is increasing. The GreenMax root ball anchoring is an efficient and reliable method to anchor the trees underground and greatly improve the visual impact of the landscape.

Bio Root Ball Anchoring
The basic GreenMax Root Ball Anchoring System is also available with bio degradable straps. The strap is made of biopolymers based on renewable raw materials that have been specially modified for particular use in the soil. It is proven that the straps decompose and also the iron components dissolve slowly by corrosion.
In addition, the strap material meets the requirement for the “Keimlings-Seal” of the European Bioplastics, a registered association. It is an EU-wide certificate that is issued by the authorized certification organizations DIN Certco and Vincotte based on standardized procedures.
