GrasCell® RC550
Modular Tree Root Management Systems
A high-performance tree root management and root cell system designed to support healthy root growth beneath pavements and landscapes while maintaining structural integrity. Engineered with high compressive strength, it is capable of supporting heavy loads including fire engine access, making it suitable for urban infrastructure and paved environments.
The system functions as a structural root cell, creating large underground void spaces that allow natural root expansion, aeration and water infiltration, preventing root confinement and surface damage. Its adjustable height and modular configuration enable flexibility to suit different site conditions, planter depths and tree requirements.
Widely used for tree root protection systems, root cell systems, urban tree planting and landscape infrastructure, GrasCell® RC550 provides a durable solution that balances structural load-bearing performance with sustainable tree root management in modern urban environments.
