ABOUT US
The founder of CH Products needed to stake a tree in his yard next to the bus stop for kids. He began thinking about the traditional method of staking a tree using a metal T-post like the ones the builders had installed in his neighborhood. They were ugly, unsafe for children to play around, hard to trim around, and very hard to remove. He knew there had to be a better way to stabilize a tree, so he began to search for alternatives. When nothing was found, he began to design his own product for staking a tree.
He consulted with industry stakeholders about current tree staking practices and what they would want considered in a new staking product. Their top concerns were:
1. TREE GROWERS AND ARBORISTS
-
The biology and overall health of the tree
-
The growth and strength of the tree
​
2. LANDSCAPERS
-
Cost of materials, labor, and time for installation
-
Safety and ease for maintenance crews to work around
-
Visual appeal
-
Ability to correct crooked growth
3. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTS
-
Visual appeal
-
Incentive for Landscapers to remove stakes after 6-12 months
-
Versatility for various design needs

After numerous designs, consultations, and re-designs, the 360Ëš Tree Stabilizer was born and the patent application was submitted in 2020.
