On August 19, 2013, my business partner Bryan Stirrat and I purchased the remaining assets of Preserved Treescapes International (“PTI”) from a bank. We formed International Treescapes, LLC, and decided to use the familiar and respected name “TreeScapes” as our moniker. Since then we have dedicated significant time and resources improving and breathing new life into the facilities, systems and production techniques of this quarter century old manufacturer whose global accolades included more than 20,000 successful projects.
We were so inspired by the extraordinary line of hand-crafted products and proprietary processes we acquired that we immediately hired over 30 skilled and experienced artisans, most having plied their trade for more than 20 years.
The knowledge, skill and effort put forth by our gifted crew of crafts-persons are well complemented by our new “dream team” of talented business specialists who now manage TreeScapes. These professionals (architect, engineer, chemist, attorney, horticulturist, designer, contractors, etc.) spearhead our company’s revitalization, production and expansion.
We immediately launched an on-going program to improve the design, material composition and construction techniques employed in the manufacturing of our products. Our efforts have provided our customers with higher quality, more efficient and durable products. Most importantly, we accomplished these myriad improvements while simultaneously reducing the cost our customers pay for our strikingly beautiful trees, plants and florals.
