Floriade 2012
Voor een bijzonder project op de Floriade 2012 werden door Tuindaviesbureau Broda, Tarzan Boomspecialisten en leden van de vakgroepen de Kring Praktiserend Boomverzorgers en Wilde Weelde een groot aantal bomen geplant. Voor ons was het een grote eer dat op de meest toonaangevende groene tentoonstelling ter wereld onze producten in ruime mate zijn vertegenwoordigd.

What are the points of attention when using the Keeper system?
Please consider the following three points when using the Keeper system: Download file
-
What is the Keeper system made of?
The raw material for the components of the Keeper system is Cradonyl. This is a 100% natural bioplastic made of residual waste from the food industry (starch).
-
How long does it take before the Keeper system composts?
This depends on a number of factors, including the micro-organisms that are present in the ground. In all cases, the system will stay in place long enough to ensure that the tree will be able to stand on its own.
-
Is the Keeper system fit for every soil?
The Keeper system has been designed for easy and efficient installation. The Keeper system is eminently suitable for implementation by social enterprises.

-
For which sizes tree can the Keeper system be used?
See the table below for the tree size and its corresponding recommended number of anchors.
The size of the tree is the circumference in centimetres of the trunk at 1.5 meters from the root ball. Young trees should be supported by a bamboo stick if the trunk is not yet strong enough.Size Number of anchors 10/12 - 14/16 - 18/20 4 (small) 20/25 4 (large) 25/30 6 (large) 30/35 8 (large) 40/45 10 (large) Larger than 45 12 (large) -
Is a manual for installation available?
A manual is available on request. Instruction video can be found here..
-
A sustainable alternative; that must be more expensive?
Actually, the Keeper system is significantly cheaper in procurement and installation than tree stakes, and has a limited aftercare.
-
Is the Keeper system suitable for trees with a brittle root ball?
Yes it is. If that is the case you can strengthen the root ball by securing an extra piece of NatuRope around it after regular installation. We do advise trees with a properly rooted root ball for better anchoring, better growth and a lower tree mortality rate.
