TreeTube Overview
TreeTube tackles the challenge of establishing and maintaining healthy trees in urban environments, where limited space, compacted soils, and underground utilities create a hostile habitat. To overcome these obstacles, TreeTube has developed a patented technology that ensures optimal conditions for tree growth. By providing desired volumes of soil, enabling vital gas exchange and water access, TreeTube creates an ideal environment for trees to thrive.
The innovative aspect of TreeTube lies in guiding tree roots through the system, allowing for the coexistence of tree roots and underground utilities. This groundbreaking approach simplifies the integration of trees and urban infrastructure. The system is conveniently delivered ready to install on-site, making the process quick and efficient.
TreeTube Climate Tech relevance
Trees are crucial in reducing pollution, capturing carbon, and lowering the temperature - mitigating the Heat Island Effect, which is when an urban area is significantly warmer than its surrounding rural area, leading to higher air-pollution. Trees in urban areas can remove up to 1.7 million tons of air pollution per year in the United States alone, and a single mature tree can capture 45 kg of carbon a year. However, city streets are a hostile habitat for trees. Dense underground utilities, impervious asphalt, and compacted urban soils all prevent trees from thriving due to a lack of access to healthy soil, air, and water. TreeTube’s solution gives trees access to these three crucial elements, so that they can coexist with an urban environment.
