LimeTreePit Rubber & Mulch is a more flexible alternative to traditional tree pits. Providing an environmentally friendly system using recycled EPDM, SBR & Rubber Mulch which is bound together to create a decorative, safe & low maintenance system which is SuDS (Sustainable Drainage Systems) compliant. Ideal for both for new and established trees used in parks and street schemes the system allows the tree to grow through the flexibility of the surface. LimeTreePit Rubber is ideal for pedestrian and low vehicular traffic whilst still keeping the system decorative, functional, seamless and slightly flexible which is also low maintenance. LimeTreePit Rubber & Mulch Surfacing is a system consisting of either rubber EPDM granules installed over SBR rubber granules or a fully rubber mulch system. Both options using a quality non-UV aromatic binder resin for pedestrian traffic. Available in a variety of colours both from the standard range and bespoke designs on request.
