Pe Artificial Christmas Tree

We all know what a Christmas tree is and we all know about the trees that are available

, be it a Real Christmas tree or an Artificial Christmas. But how many of us actually know what the Artificial Christmas tree we are purchasing is constructed from, who first manufactured them and how the tree we are buying is produced?

Essentially these are two types of plastic. PVC and PE are the least expensive plastic to produce, and in their 'raw' form they are produced as small pellets before being melted and moulded in to a useable product. There are actually two types of PE pellets and many companies do not differentiate which is used in their products, just for the record our PE Artificial Christmas trees use the more expensive version delivering a higher quality tree that retains its colour and shape longer, so beware of a lesser quality tree, but I digress and that is a separate article coming soon!

After PE, PVC is the third most extensively created synthetic material. Most commonly used in products from milk containers to upholstery; where as the lesser form of PE is more commonly found in everyday carry bags?.

We mentioned there are two types of plastic, and our trees use the quality type, which lead onto how your tree is created?

The first artificial Christmas tree was invented by a company who made toilet bowl brushes, the Addis Brush Company. However since the first design concept was made into reality the materials used, and the thought process behind the designs, have thankfully progressed rapidly; however it is still interesting to know the that first artificial Christmas tree was actually just a really big green toilet bowl brush!

PE trees have more bulk than their PVC relatives, more supple, they take on the appearance and feel of real trees. You may find it difficult tell the difference between that and a natural tree. Most PE trees have an uneven and life-like appearance, enjoyable to the eye, giving quality and delivering a realistic tree.

These artificial trees can be produced in a number of different ways, and are predominantly produced in China although there are some quality tree producers in Europe also. The 'needles' of the tree are mostly produced from slices of PVC film. This film is wound around and through shaped metal branches made to different sizes in order to mimic the appearance of a real tree. Although a PVC tree is realistic, once you are within a few feet you will certainty notice that it is artificial, where as a PE tree is barely indecipherable to that of a real Christmas tree.

To add even more simplicity, a Pre Lit version of the tree is also available. Using warm white, low voltage and long lasting LED lights, the Pre Lit version of the PE tree is ultra modern, ultra realistic, extremely simple to use, very long lasting and above all, they are totally realistic and convincing.
