Airflow introduces all-in-one Christmas tree stand at Four Oaks

The 'Bertie' stand is named after Prince Albert, who first brought living Christmas trees into the UK.

Bertie

The product can suit all popular Christmas tree sizes, from 4’ to 9’/1.2m– 2.7m.

Considering the average Christmas tree for most homes is 5’ – 6’ tall with a trunk diameter of 10cm, Bertie surpasses the parameters of nearly all households and will stabilise and secure the tree.

Retailers and Christmas tree growers can benefit from stocking just one product, rather than several different sizes of tree stands.

Bertie has a 4.5lt (1 gallon) water holding capacity to help reduce needle drop and tightening screws that assists the quick stabilising and centring of the tree.

He also has adjustable legs that unclip to 90 degrees, which offers extra support. The base of the Christmas tree stand is further strengthened with lots of ribbing to increase rigidity and reduce the risk of toppling. The adjustable legs have been designed in a way that means the heavier the tree, the more stable the stand will be.

Bertie can be purchased loose or in festive “Bertie Boxes” which are aimed at drawing attention in pop up Christmas stalls, garden centres, or at Christmas tree farms to aid sales.

Each Bertie Box contains 10 Bertie’s, can be quickly refilled, and is easy to recycle after use.

Bertie’s Suits:

- Santa - (Red Pot/White Legs)

- Elf - (Green Pot/Red Legs)

- Posh – (Burgundy Pot/Gold Legs)

- Jack Frost – (Silver Pot/Black Legs)
