There's no denying that the Christmas tree is one of the main decorations you’ll use when preparing for the holidays. And while these lovely festive trees are a Christmas staple, the classic pine Christmas trees are difficult to maintain and only last for one season. 

This is where the fibre-optic Christmas tree comes in, with a range of useful benefits. They are an affordable and easy way to get the traditional Christmas tree look without the drama that comes with a fir tree. They come in a range of sizes and styles, so you're sure to find one that suits your taste. They are also easy to set up and take down so you can easily store them for the next Christmas Day.

What is a Fibre Optic Christmas Tree?

A fibre-optic Christmas tree is an artificial tree that uses fibre optics to create the illusion of twinkling lights. The fibres are illuminated by LEDs, which emit light in a range of colours. By carefully controlling the intensity and colour of the light, it is possible to create a wide variety of visual effects, from simple twinkling to more complex patterns. You can also control the speed and patterns of the lights on most of our fibre-optic trees, for varying effects. 


Fibre-optic Christmas trees are becoming increasingly popular in Australia as they are energy-efficient and easy to set up. They also have the advantage of being safe for use around children and pets, as there is no risk of electrical shock. 


If you are looking for a festive centrepiece for your household this year, look no further than the illuminating fibre-optic Christmas tree!  

Classic Pine Christmas Trees vs Fibre-Optic Christmas Trees

As mentioned earlier, Pine Christmas trees have been a staple for the Christmas tradition. Some people may tell you that there's no substitute for the real deal, but let's take a look at some of the things fibre-optic trees do better. 

Messiness

If you've ever had a pine Christmas tree in your living room, you'll know first-hand that owning one is an incredibly messy endeavour. With pine needles constantly falling off and getting everywhere, it's not long before your whole room is covered in a thin layer of pine needles. 


With a fibre-optic tree, there is no chance of any mess happening, and you can easily put it up and store it for the next Christmas without any fuss. 

Price

Real pine trees can be expensive, and if you're looking for a bigger tree then the price only goes up. Fibre optic trees are generally a more affordable option overall so they are great for Christmas on a budget. 


Sometimes, a fibre optic tree may be slightly more expensive initially. But this is then offset as fibre optic trees are designed to last many Christmas seasons compared to a pine tree that only lasts one. 

Fire Risk

As modern LED lights have become the norm for Christmas tree decoration, the risk of fire hazards has decreased. 


But as Christmas in the southern hemisphere occurs in summer, fire safety is a very important consideration to make. And given that most fibre optic trees are designed with fireproof materials, they are certainly a safer choice this Christmas. 

Environmental Impact

One of the main concerns people have about traditional Christmas trees is the impact they have on the environment. These days, most are grown in dedicated plantations, which has reduced the impact of unnecessary deforestation. By owning a fibre-optic Christmas tree, you are contributing to a more environmentally conscious celebration. 

How to Decorate a Fibre-Optic Tree

A fibre-optic Christmas tree is an easy and festive way to add some bright holiday decorations to your home. While decorating a fibre optic Christmas tree may seem daunting at first, it's actually quite simple. Follow along with our handy fibre-optic tree set-up guide: 


  1. Start by placing the tree in a central location in your home. Once you've found the perfect spot, take a step back and assess how much space you have to work with. This will help you determine how many lights and accessories you can use. 

  1. When stringing the lights, start at the base of the tree and work your way up. Wrapping the lights around the trunk will help give the illusion of a fuller tree.

  1. To add some extra sparkle, consider hanging ornaments from the branches. Shiny ornaments will reflect the light from the fibre optics, creating a dazzling effect.

  1. Don't be afraid to get creative! There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to decorating a fibre-optic Christmas tree!
