Soil Cell Systems

Create uncompacted soil volume beneath paved surfaces, giving urban trees the space they need to establish healthy roots and thrive for decades.

Why Urban Trees Fail

Urban trees don’t struggle because they were planted incorrectly. Beneath sidewalks, streets, and plazas, limited soil volume, compaction, utilities, and restricted water movement all make it difficult for trees to reach maturity. Successful urban tree planting begins by addressing these common challenges.

Soil beneath paving becomes compacted

Trees cannot reach maturity without adequate rooting space

Roots compete with essential underground infrastructure

Managing runoff and supporting tree health

How Soil Cell Systems Work

By separating structural support from healthy soil, soil cell systems create a predictable rooting environment for urban trees. This allows project teams to provide the soil volume, aeration, and root development needed for long-term tree health without compromising structural performance.

Transfers surface loads and protect the soil below

Protects uncompacted soil for root growth

Allows water and oxygen to reach the entire root zone

RootSpace

Modular Soil Cell System

RootSpace creates large volumes of rootable soil beneath paved environments while supporting structural loads.

RootSpace® is designed to separate structural support from root development, allowing pavements and infrastructure to perform above ground while preserving uncompacted soil below. Its modular system maximizes rootable soil volume and integrates with complementary tree pit components to support healthier urban trees for decades.

RootCell
