Plastic Forests plastic mineral composite Orchard Stakes are tough, low maintenance and long lasting. They are manufactured from 100% recycled plastic plus a mineral blend for increased strength and will never rot, rust or swell. Our solid Orchard Stakes are waterproof, UV stabilised and termite proof so you can re-use them again and again. Orchard Stakes are ideal for irrigation applications and marking the location of rows in an orchard.
“We’re using the stakes to help us secure our irrigation drip tube and ensure that it remains firmly fixed in the one spot. Previously with the contraction and expansion of the tube, in hot and cold conditions, it was prone to moving all over the place and into the pathway of orchard machinery, such as tractors and slashers. Now we have far less drip tube to repair, saving us time and money. The extra length of Plastic Forests 900mm Orchard Stakes also allows us to attach a cattle tag (row number), providing us a quick and simple way of determining our exact location in the orchard.”
