GREEN & BLUE INFRASTRUCTURE
LAUNCHING ROOTSPACE GENERATION 2
GreenBlue Urban are proud to launch the next
generation of RootSpace® system – the most
innovative soil cell in the industry. Essentially
a pavement support system – designed for
maximum soil and rooting volume, to be ‘utility
friendly’, with economic freight and industry-
leading strength characteristics.
RootSpace Generation 2 has some excellent
improvements:
• New 400mm high version to enable a wider
range of tree pit depths – now 5 different
height configurations
• Faster, simpler and easier assembly process
• Further increase the load bearing capacity
• Enable easy re-excavation for maintenance
of utilities
Full structural capabilities are available but
by way of an example, the following table uses
a 4.5 tonne wheel load on different RootSpace
configurations - this is based on a typical
macadam/asphalt type road construction and
a standard GBU tree pit specification.
