RootStop Linear Root Barrier is designed to restrict unwanted root growth while allowing trees to develop naturally in controlled directions. It is ideal for applications where roots must be prevented from encroaching on adjacent properties, pavements, building foundations, or underground services.
Manufactured from a robust, durable plastic formulation, RootStop is engineered to maintain its integrity underground. It resists brittleness and degradation, and is not affected by chemical leaching in the soil, ensuring long-term performance.
Its rigid structure makes installation straightforward, allowing it to be placed into a narrow trench using trenching machines or a narrow backhoe bucket. Once installed, it forms a continuous barrier that effectively redirects root growth away from sensitive areas.
For best results, installation depth and placement should be determined by a qualified arborist, taking into account tree species, soil conditions, and site-specific requirements.
