The Aeroplas AC Carry Tray Grey is a professional horticultural carry tray designed to make grouped plants easier to handle, organise, move and present throughout nursery production, dispatch and retail.
Measuring approximately 53.5 x 42cm, the AC Carry Tray provides a substantial platform for compatible nursery pots. Its moulded construction incorporates defined pot sections, strengthening ribs and multiple openings across the base, creating a practical tray for commercial plant handling.
For professional growers, carry trays provide an efficient way to manage plants as groups rather than repeatedly handling individual pots. This can help streamline movement between growing areas, order preparation, loading, delivery and garden centre presentation.
Finished in grey, the tray provides a neutral professional appearance suited to nursery and retail environments. Manufactured by Aeroplas in the West Midlands, it forms part of a specialist UK-manufactured horticultural plastics range developed for commercial growers, nurseries and plant retailers.
A full pallet contains 880 AC Carry Trays.

UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer producing plastic products specifically for the professional horticultural industry. Its range includes nursery pots, carry trays and related products designed around the day-to-day requirements of commercial plant production and retail.
Carry trays are an important part of that system. A suitable tray allows compatible pots to be organised into consistent groups, making plants easier to handle as they move through different stages of production and distribution.
UK manufacture also provides professional growers and horticultural businesses with a domestically produced option when specifying trays and containers for larger production programmes.
Designed for efficient plant handling
Handling individual plant pots repeatedly can become a significant task in a commercial nursery. Plants may need to move between propagation and growing areas, be repositioned for spacing, assembled into customer orders and finally transferred through dispatch and delivery.
The Aeroplas AC Carry Tray allows compatible pots to be managed together as a group. This provides a more organised unit for routine plant movement and can simplify the process of keeping batches and varieties together.
Carry trays can also help maintain a more consistent layout when plants are being staged for dispatch or presented at retail. Rather than arranging loose pots individually every time they are moved, the tray provides a defined format that can remain with the plants through several handling stages.
Moulded sections & open drainage design
The AC Carry Tray features a moulded base with defined sections for compatible plant pots. Raised structural areas separate the sections and help provide support across the tray.
Multiple openings are incorporated throughout the base. These allow irrigation and drainage water from the pots to pass through the carry tray rather than collecting around the containers.
This is particularly useful in nursery environments where plants may remain in their carry trays while being irrigated. The AC Carry Tray should therefore be treated as an open transport and handling tray rather than a watertight irrigation tray.
Where run-off needs to be collected, the carry tray should be positioned on a suitable bench, irrigation system or separate collection surface.
From nursery production to garden centre
The Aeroplas AC Carry Tray can support several stages of the commercial plant supply chain.
| Nursery production | Group compatible potted crops into manageable units for routine handling and movement around the nursery. |
|---|---|
| Crop organisation | Keep compatible plants, cultivars or production batches together as they move through the growing area. |
| Irrigation areas | The open base allows drainage water to pass through when compatible potted plants are irrigated. |
| Order preparation | Use trays to organise suitable plants while customer and wholesale orders are being assembled. |
| Dispatch | Provides a consistent handling unit for compatible pots during preparation for onward transport. |
| Retail presentation | Suitable for keeping compatible nursery plants grouped together within garden centre and plant retail environments. |
Choosing compatible pots
Carry tray compatibility depends on more than the nominal litre capacity of a plant pot. The external diameter, base profile, taper and overall shape of the container all influence how securely it sits within a moulded tray.
For that reason, pot compatibility should be checked against the specific container being used rather than assuming that every pot of a similar stated volume will fit the AC Carry Tray.
This is particularly important for commercial growers standardising a production system across substantial quantities of pots and trays. Confirming the correct pot and carry tray combination before a large production run helps ensure consistent handling throughout the crop.
Built for commercial horticultural workflows
Standardised carry trays can provide benefits throughout a professional nursery. Using a consistent handling format can make crop movements more predictable, simplify order assembly and provide a practical unit for staff working across growing, picking and dispatch operations.
The 53.5 x 42cm AC Carry Tray is intended for these professional applications, providing a repeatable format that can be incorporated into nursery handling systems where compatible pots are being used.
For growers purchasing at scale, a full pallet contains 880 trays, providing stock for substantial nursery production and plant distribution programmes.
