VV | Smithers-Oasis
100% Biodegradable PlantPaper Wrap for young plant propagation was recently introduces by Oasis Grower Solutions, a division of Smithers Oasis.
PlantPaper is an all-natural, bio-based, wrap media that contains no glue and does not leave any chemical residues. PlantPaper can be used with most paper pot machines and works well for slow-to-root cultivars. The expected biodegradation of PlantPaper averages 12 months, but depends on the environment.
Ideal for stabilized media like the Fertiss line and used with ready-to-stick propagation media for young plants. The Oasis Grower Solutions PlantPaper is available in plug diameters ranging from 20 to 80 millimeters.
“Due to its proprietary construction, PlantPaper self-glues, alleviating the need for chemical glues. The sealing temperature for the paper is between 239 and 284 degrees Fahrenheit (115 and 140 Celsius), depending on equipment type, production speeds and run sizes. PlantPaper is unique in the industry because of its biodegradable qualities,” said Jeff Naymik, global marketing manager, Oasis Grower Solutions. “The Oasis PlantPaper is reinforced with fiber made of fully biodegradable corn, rather than plastic fibers made from oil that will not decompose.”
Oasis Grower Solutions has a network of 15 facilities on six continents around the world. With headquarters in Kent, Ohio, the company’s products are distributed in Belgium, Brazil, China, Colombia, France, Germany, India, Malaysia, Mexico, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, the United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia and Japan.
