green-POD Paper Tree Guards
Unprotected Seedlings Are a Costly Risk in Large-Scale Revegetation
In professional revegetation, forestry, and landscape projects, early plant failure can significantly delay outcomes and increase costs. Young seedlings face constant exposure to harsh environmental conditions—UV extremes, temperature fluctuations, chemical overspray, and browsing by wildlife. Without reliable protection, survival rates drop, and replanting becomes inevitable.
A Proven, Eco-Friendly Solution for Scalable Plant Establishment
The green-POD Paper Tree Guards are specifically designed for professionals engaged in large-scale planting projects. Designed in Australia, and made from heavy-duty, 100% recycled paperboard, these guards provide cost-effective, plastic-free protection that supports plant establishment in diverse environments.
Engineered to withstand harsh conditions while naturally breaking down over time, green-PODs reduce labour costs associated with guard retrieval and disposal—making them ideal for contractors, land managers, councils, and environmental consultants.
