What We Do

Replications Unlimited employs a state-of-the-art system for environmental replication of artificial bark and trees. We can make a wide variety of tree types, sizes and structures. All we need from you is the diameter, height, type of tree and number of branches and then we can provide you with a bid.

The ``Old`` Way

Conventional methods of artificial tree bark fabrication involve applying Shotcrete/concrete or an epoxy mastic to the ``tree-like`` form. This is followed by labor-intensive embossing or hand-carving the material to resemble tree bark.

Our Process

A Flexible mold is taken from an existing tree to capture every detail and texture nature has created. From these mold, flexible ``sheets`` of bark are produced using Replications Unlimited's spray-applied elastomer system. This material fully penetrates every crevice and detail to exactly replicate the original tree.

Finishing

The final color of the artificial bark is accomplished with our multi-tone process. These stains allow the fabricator to duplicate the appearance of the original tree, alter its color to fit a particular environment or create a special effect.
