TUBEX Treeshelter®
Treeshelters are a vital component when attempting to establish hardwood trees from seedlings. Developed in the United Kingdom in 1979, TUBEX® treeshelters are used in over 25 countries around the world. The twin-walled, solid, translucent tubes provide maximum protection from animal browse, wind, chemical sprays and equipment. In addition, the greenhouse environment created inside the shelter promotes growth.

TUBEX®, the world leader in the development and manufacturing of treeshelters, has the product solutions that work. Today, TUBEX® treeshelters are considered the standard for seedling protection by foresters, wildlife managers and woodlot owners.
