BRADAS tree trunk protector OBO022033GR is a green protective cover designed to shield tree trunks from mechanical damage caused by mowing equipment and from small rodents. The reusable sleeve fits trunks up to 330 mm wide and 200 mm high and creates a physical barrier that helps preserve bark integrity and reduce maintenance needs in gardens, parks and urban planting sites.
Advantages
The trunk protector is made to be durable and reusable, offering a straightforward mechanical barrier that reduces the risk of cuts, scrapes and gnawing. Its green colour blends with planting areas while remaining visible enough for maintenance work. The design supports simple installation and removal, enabling seasonal use and storage.
Suitable for
- Individual garden trees and small orchard plantings
- Street trees and urban green strips in parks or campuses
- Newly planted or young trees requiring bark protection during establishment
- Areas where mowing, strimming or pedestrian traffic poses a risk to trunks
When it may not be suitable
This protective cover is sized for trunks up to approximately 330 mm wide and 200 mm high; it may not fit larger mature trees or very irregular trunk shapes. It provides a physical barrier against mechanical damage and small rodents but does not prevent damage from larger animals, chemical exposure, or disease.
Key specifications
- Colour: green
- Maximum trunk width: 330 mm
- Maximum trunk height: 200 mm
- Material: reusable protective sleeve (durable plastic)
- Suitable environments: gardens, parks, urban plantings
How to use
Open the sleeve and wrap it around the trunk at the area requiring protection, ensuring the protected height covers the typical contact line of mower blades or strimmer lines. Fasten or secure the sleeve according to its design so it sits snugly but without constricting growth. Check periodically and adjust or remove the protector as the trunk thickens; store indoors when not in seasonal use.
What to consider before purchase
- Measure trunk width and height to confirm fit within 330 mm × 200 mm.
- Consider trunk shape and any existing wounds that may need different protection methods.
- Decide whether a plastic reusable sleeve matches local maintenance and environmental preferences.
Usage recommendations
Position the protector so the lower edge clears soil contact and mulch to avoid moisture buildup against the bark. Inspect the sleeve periodically for debris or trapped moisture and loosen or remove it when the trunk begins to outgrow the protector to prevent restriction.
