Two types of papers utilized by Ellepot-USA in its cutting and seed propagation system, are now listed as VeriFlora approved input materials. The papers, Ellepot EP and VP, are Forest Stewardship Council certified from well-managed forests. One roll of paper is equivalent to about 17,000 4 inch pots. One pallet of paper holds 32 times that, or 540,000 pots, taking up much less space and weight on a pallet. The Ellepot reduces the amount of planting media needed and avoids root shock when transplanting by keeping the soil secured around the root system.
The VeriFlora Approved Input Material program addresses the needs of growers and retailers concerned about sustainability.
