Tree Grilles/GridsIn addition to adding character to surrounding paved/pedestrian areas, tree grilles are vital for the protection of root systems of trees. They prevent soil compaction by pedestrian traffic and enable the roots to receive water. Although most of our Grilles are supplied in Gray iron, we can produce grilles in SG iron for load bearing qualities or where the designs require narrow ribs and slots. These are especially popular in U.S.A. SG iron conforming to British Standard BS EN – 1563, Grade EN – GJS 400-15 and 450-10 is used for the production of SG iron specified Tree Grilles. Frames fabricated from mild steel and available in light, medium and heavy duty construction are offered for all our Grilles and are essential for the proper fitting of Tree Grilles. We will be happy to develop any products you are not able to find in our standard range.
Most of our standard products are based on Edwardian and Victorian designs and are cast in Grey/Gray iron. However, where greater ductility, mechanical strength and shock resistance are required in a product due to its application or design, we cast in Ductile iron (also known as SG-Spheroidal Graphite iron). Ductile iron is usually the preferred material for casting slender railing posts and lighting columns. |
