NACHHALTIGKEIT
Wir entwickeln uns ständig weiter, um das zu schützen, was wichtig ist
SUSTAINABILITY
From material choice to end-of-line planning, we are committed to providing you with a circular solution.
This includes manufacturing shelters using a minimum of 50% recycled polymers and promoting responsible removal of shelters from the environment through our Collection & Recycling Programme – which has already successfully collected and recycled over 1.1 million shelters to date.
We recognise that not all environments allow for easy retrieval. In areas such as dense woodland or steep terrain, our biodegradable Nature range naturally breaks down without harming the surrounding ecosystem. At Tubex, sustainability has been a core principle for over three decades, guiding how we design, produce and manage our products
Our Sustainability Pillars
Production
We thoughtfully choose materials that match environmental responsibility with dependable, proven tree protection. Our shelters are made from fully recyclable polypropylene (PP), and our sustainability efforts extend well beyond our own products.
Products
All of our solutions are designed with their full lifecycle in mind. From day one, each solution includes a defined end-of-life plan — ensuring that once it has fulfilled its role in protecting young trees, it leaves no lasting impact on the environment.
People
Sustainability is a shared responsibility. That’s why we collaborate closely with partners and stakeholders across forestry, farming, landscaping, and related sectors to drive industry-wide improvements.
Tree Shelter Collection & Recycling Programme
Research shows recycled tree shelters to be the lowest environmental impact solution. With the Tubex tree shelter collection and recycling programme, you can recycle your used tree shelters into new tree shelters, while ensuring a responsible disposal. Available across the UK.
Grow Together – Tree Shelter Donations
Our charitable initiative to support tree planting projects across the UK through the donation of tree shelters to charities and community projects. Nominate a project now.
Our Sustainability Strategy
At Tubex, we have been pioneering tree shelter solutions since the 1980s, giving saplings the best chances at growth. Learn about the strategy behind our commitment to promote the move towards a circular economy, including our products, operations, and partners.
Recycled Content
Tubex recyclable tree shelters are the only ones in the market containing recycled content. We are aiming for an estimated 30% recycled content across our portfolio for the 24/25 season. Did you know? Independent research shows tree shelters with 35% recycled content, recycled at the end of life, such as Tubex, are the lowest environmental impact tree guarding solution.
