Adapt8 Tree Guardians
Adapt8, the original developers of black and white tree trunk protectors, has moved production of their ‘Tree Guardians’ in-house. Manufacturing the product internally allows the Salem, Oregon company to offer both standard and custom sizes, provides significant freight savings, and ensures product availability nation-wide and year-round.
Tree Guardians are black and white corrugated plastic tree guards that provide trees years of protection against predators, herbicides, tractor damage, southwest sun-scald and frost. The corrugated Tree Guardians easily wrap around the base of a tree with reflective white on the outside and black on the inside that reduces sucker growth. The cushioned product also offers protection to nursery stock during transport.
“Nurserymen, orchardists and nut growers have relied on Adapt8’s Tree Guardians to protect their investments since we first developed them over 25 years ago,” said Michelle Moore, CEO of Adapt8. “We are happy to provide value to our customers by offering custom sizes and cost savings through our internal production.”
