032GLOBAL: 32 Cell 10.5×21” Tree & Shrub Propagation Tray for 50mm Ellepot

  • The optimum Ellepot height for this container is 90mm (3.5”), but the tray’s clever design supports taller Ellepots as well.
  • Trays nest for easy storage and can also be stacked when filled with Ellepots thanks to our unique stack/nest design.
  • Injection molded plastic for durability, long life and ease of carrying.
  • Large numbers of trays can be moved at once using pot forks.
  • Widely used for the rootstock stage of propagating fruit and nut trees.
  • A perfect container system for landscape tree and shrub propagation.
  • Ellepots are held centrally and securely, ideally suited to mechanization as well as manual handling.
  • Excellent all-round air-pruning and airflow through the canopy.
  • 32 plants can be handled at once or lifted out individually.
  • Raised foot at base of tray keeps the Ellepots off the ground when trays placed on the floor.
  • Sculpt cut-outs between cells allow easy manual extraction of Ellepots.
  • ** Please note this tray is not recommended for use on T-rail benches **

Details & Features

This 32 cell container holds 50mm diameter Ellepots and complements the 006GLOBAL tray. Produced in South Africa, these trays nest very closely together keeping global shipping costs to a minimum.

A 50mm wide Ellepot is the perfect size to start propagating many fruit trees, and also larger landscape trees. It is also an excellent substitute for those trees grown in plastic bags – even though the container volume is typically smaller. This is because the root system is far superior than when grown in bags, meaning a smaller root system can support a much larger tree. This tree is also highly likely to transplant better and grow quicker once planted out too.

This size of Ellepot can then be easily stepped up to a Jumbo Ellepot (Such as 100mm or 120mm). A hole is drilled in the larger Ellepot and the 50mm is simply slotted in, making stepping up a very quick and efficient operation.

One of the key concepts with the Ellepot/Proptek system is how compatible with automation it is. Serious time and money efficiency savings can be made throughout the whole growing process, right from filling, to sorting & grading, and to shipping out of the door.

The optimum height Ellepot for this container is 3.5″ (90mm); though Ellepots taller than this can be used if required.

The Ellepot supports the growing media and holds it together while the roots are growing, meaning they can be moved or transplanted far sooner than in traditional systems. The Ellepot inserts are held in such a way that also allows enough air movement for great aeration and drainage and fantastic ‘air pruning’ of the root system. The tray also keeps the plants raised off the ground away from standing water to allow air to better flow around the base to help air pruning. This also prevents the plants from sitting in water, thereby reducing water logging and disease.

Once the trees are grown to the desired size, the Ellepot insert can be removed, packaged and sent to the field or customer without any plastic leaving the nursery, helping to ensure containers never go missing. This also helps with disease management, as you aren’t bringing any contaminated containers back to the nursery.

Please Note…

1 Full truck loads can fit more trays per pallet as a dedicated full size 53ft lorry is used for delivery. For partial truck loads, we cannot guarantee the height of the lorry, so pallets must fit into all commercial freight vehicles. If arranging your own transport, please advise us at the earliest opportunity on the internal height of your vehicle.

2 Trays are stacked loose or partly loose to get the maximum number of trays per container. This will result in lower unit shipping cost but also more labor to unload

All statistics and measurements may vary so please check before purchasing, if critical, or ask for sample.
