PE Artificial Christmas Trees

Hello visitor! Thank you for taking the time to read this article.


What exactly is a PE Artificial Christmas tree? This is a question we are asked on a regular basis, and with the increase in popularity of this type of tree over recent years, we have written this article to explain the ins and outs' of Polyethylene better known as PE. This article should go some way to explaining what PE is, the process involved in manufacturing a PE Artificial Christmas tree and the benefits of purchasing a PE Artificial Christmas tree and how they compare to a regular Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Christmas trees happy reading!

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!

Back to this article, PVC is the third most widely produced plastic (after PE which is second). The most common usage for PVC is in our every day products from milk containers to upholstery; where as the lesser form of PE is more commonly found in everyday shopping bags; we could get scientific about the differences here but that would lead to a different article also.

So now you know the basics, your wondering how is my artificial tree produced from a plastic used in shopping bags! Well, as I said there are two types of PE. Our trees use the more expensive version not found in the average shopping bag. So, how is my PE Artificial Christmas tree made?

PE Artificial Christmas trees and their cousins the regular PVC tree are both made of the plastics mentioned. However, our ultra realistic and beautiful PE trees are made with very high quality material modelled from actual real Christmas tree branches which are used as forms' to create the mould. The process involves the plastic being injected into a tree branch mould, this mould is directly shaped in the form of a real tree branch, and this helps to create our very realistic artificial Christmas trees.

What is the difference between the two you ask? PE made artificial tree branches tend to have more body than their PVC cousins, they are more pliable and the needles on the branches actually look, feel and act like a real tree needle. Unless you are up close and personal with a PE Artificial Christmas tree you would actually find it incredibly difficult to distinguish a difference between that and an actual real tree'. They even have an uneven' 3-D appearance which is definitely pleasing to the eye and adds character and ultra realism to the tree; the most obvious difference between that and a real tree is the lack of pine scent.

So you know ask; what the benefit of a PE Artificial tree is. Well, apart from the above a PE tree offers a wonderful time saving advantage in that they require little or no shaping, in most cases you can literally take the tree from the box and decorate. There are also countless colours, hues and textures available to choose from. Most PE Artificial Christmas tree?
