Pöppelmann TEKU® is causing a stir in the “green industry” with its recyclable young plant trays in circular grey made from more than 80 percent post-consumer recyclate (PCR), i.e. material that is obtained by recycling previously used products from household recycling collections. After use, the young plant trays can be fully recycled again.
The plastics specialist is dispensing with non-recyclable black material in the product segment of propagation trays and at the same time offering the usual high Pöppelmann quality. The resource-saving properties of the products are confirmed by the Blue Angel eco-label and the RecyClass and Cyclos certifications.
The new young plant trays in Circular grey are opaque and UV-resistant. They achieve these properties with a plastic that does not require any black pigments – this is unique in the industry to date. The trays are optimised to meet the needs of young plants, their design promotes ideal irrigation and drainage – and therefore healthy growth with shorter cultivation times. The stable shape and reinforced edge of the trays support smooth automation. They therefore fulfil the central requirements of professional horticulture and stand for efficient production processes.
