5. The Vivente Fir Tree
One of our personal favourites, the Vivente Fir boasts an astonishing amount of realism in every single branch tip.
That's because, along with its traditional green Christmas tree colour, the branches are all high-quality PE moulded. Not sure why that matters to your tree? Put simply, the more PE branch tips on your tree, the more realistic it will look. Wonderful!
What makes an artificial Christmas tree look realistic?
Even with side-by-side comparisons, it can be difficult to tell artificial Christmas trees apart from the real thing – and it’s all thanks to their realistic materials.
At Christmas Tree World, for instance, many of our artificial Christmas trees are made from a combination of two special materials that make our trees some of the most realistic Christmas trees you'll find.
These two materials are PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and PE (polyethylene).
What is PVC and PE in a Christmas tree?
Don’t worry, you don’t need a degree in chemistry to understand what these materials are, you just need to know that they look much more authentic than normal plastic models.
Both PVC and PE are used to replicate the pine needles of real Christmas trees with astounding effect. That’s because these branch tips have been hand-sculpted for ultimate authenticity, able to convince even the most eagle-eyed of guests that your tree is actually real.
What’s more, it’s only with these malleable materials that no-fuss Christmas tree set-ups are possible. For example, our attached hinged branch Christmas trees arrive on your doorstep with their branches already attached, all you need to do is bend them down into place. Simple!
Alternatively, if assembling the Christmas tree together is a festive family tradition, then look to our unattached hook-in branch Christmas trees. You get that sense of satisfaction from a job well done and a fabulous Christmas tree that lasts for years to come.
Either way, it is these quality realistic materials that make for the best artificial Christmas trees.
Even with all these fantastic trees, picking the best artificial Christmas tree can be tricky. For more options, head over to our website and browse our full collection of artificial Christmas trees.
