60cm Tubex Nature™ Easysleeve 57-73mm

The Tubex Nature™ Easysleeve 60 cm is the ideal solution for gardeners, landscapers, councils, and tree planting contractors looking for a sustainable, efficient, and eco-friendly way to protect young trees during their critical early growth stages. Designed specifically for hedge planting and small-diameter trees, this shelter encourages rapid growth, shields against browsing animals, and provides a microclimate that boosts survival rates.

This product replaces the Tubex Nature Easywrap range, offering all the benefits of the previous solution with enhanced durability, twin-wall construction, and faster installation.

Made from a bio-based blend derived from starch, plant, and vegetable sources, the 60 cm Easysleeve is fully biodegradable in situ, eliminating the need for removal at the end of its life. Its robust twin-wall construction maintains strength while remaining lightweight and easy to transport.

Installation is quick and straightforward: simply slide the Easysleeve over your hedge plant or slender tree and secure it with a heavy-duty 12–14 lb bamboo cane, no cable ties required. The flared top design protects stems from abrasion, and the excellent light transmission accelerates healthy growth. Perfect for professional hedgerow planting schemes, small-scale landscaping, and council projects, the 60 cm Easysleeve provides a reliable, environmentally friendly solution for modern hedge establishment.
