Solid Serif Hug a Tubs
The Shrubtubs tree planters offer a stable base structure for mounting Solid Serif wall benches.
The Solid Serif wall benches on these Solid Serif Hug a Tub tree planters are joined together at the corners. The robust wall benches run parallel to the tree planter, which creates an attractive herringbone corner solution.
As the Solid Serif Hug a Tub configurations are mobile, various layouts are possible. They are highly suitable for introducing greenery into bare public squares or on concrete surfaces.

Treetec® Tree care system
Years of research and experience with countless urban projects have resulted in the Treetec® system which is applied in Streetlife’s tree tubs. The Treetec® tree care system allows trees to develop optimally in planters.
Treetec® Basic
Treetec® Basic is a basic care kit for ensuring healthy growth in tree planters. The kit consists of an oxygen circulation system, thermal insulation and sub-soil root ball fixing system.
Treetec® Bottom Up
With Treetec® Bottom Up, the water reservoir is situated at the bottom of the tree tub or tree isle. The reservoir’s capillary tubes provide improved water circulation that significantly reduces the frequency with which watering and maintenance are required in the growing season. Over time, the new Treetec® Bottom Up Biodegradable Column will decompose and be absorbed into the substrate.
The four stadiums of the Biodegradable Capillary Columns are depicted below:
- A The installation of the columns against the root cloth.
- B The first root growth in the column structure. First decrease of moisture-retaining fibers in the column.
- C Further root growth in the columns. Partial degradation of the cylindrical column.
- D A fully grown columnstructure has replaced he original capillary column. An optimal retention of water and oxygen by the roots now exists.
