Characteristics of Prothec Stretchable Ties
- Stretchable flat tie to prevent girdling as trees or vines grow. Girdling can restrict sap flow, resulting in permanent damage. Particularly relevant for fast growing species.
- Durable knotting thanks to notched surface on tie.
- Better wind resistance. Stretchable ties absorb movement, rather than biting into the bark, reducing the chance of breaking and producing stronger trees and vines. Allowing small amounts of sway or movement helps develop stronger root systems.
- Gentle on bark, particularly important for young trees with thin bark.
- Easy to install, without the need for special equipment and can be adjusted and re-tied if necessary.
- Compatible with a range of orchard and vineyard training systems.
- Reduced maintenance costs as ties stretch and adapt with growth rather than breaking or needing to be replaced or retied as growth occurs.
- UV resistant
Recommended Uses
- For vines and trees with rapid growth characteristics or in rough weather conditions.
