The Modiform 2520 PRISTINE Tree Tray is a professional 28-cell deep propagation tray developed for tree seedlings, shrubs and other nursery crops that require generous rooting volume. Its 53 x 30cm footprint combines 28 substantial cells with a 15cm tray depth, providing considerably more growing space per plant than a high-density plug tray.

Each cell provides approximately 390ml of growing volume, giving young plants space to establish a more substantial root system before transplanting or potting on. The deep, tapered cell profile makes the 2520 particularly relevant to professional tree, forestry and woody plant propagation.

The tray is thermoformed from PS and forms part of Modiform's PRISTINE range. PRISTINE products are produced without additional colour dye, allowing the recycled raw material itself to determine the finished appearance of the tray.

Why choose the Modiform 2520 Tree Tray?

  • 28 deep propagation cells - designed for crops requiring more root volume than conventional small plug cells.
  • Approximately 390ml per cell - provides a substantial growing volume for each young plant.
  • 15cm tray depth - gives developing roots useful vertical growing space.
  • 53 x 30cm tray format - practical dimensions for professional nursery and propagation use.
  • Lower-density propagation - fewer, larger cells provide more growing volume per plant.
  • Suitable for tree seedlings - particularly useful for young trees and woody nursery crops.
  • Individual cells - keeps each plant's growing medium and root zone separated during propagation.
  • Professional nursery format - enables 28 plants to be handled and moved as one tray.
  • Thermoformed PS construction - lightweight propagation tray designed for commercial production.
  • PRISTINE material concept - manufactured without adding colour dye to the recycled raw material.

Large 390ml cells for stronger young plants

The Modiform 2520 is designed around a relatively low cell count of 28 cells per tray. This gives each plant substantially more growing volume than would be available in a higher-density plug tray of similar overall dimensions.

Each cell holds approximately 390ml of growing medium. The combination of this generous volume and the 15cm tray depth makes the 2520 particularly useful for crops that need to remain in propagation long enough to develop a substantial young root system.

For professional growers, this provides a useful intermediate production format between small plug propagation and individual pots. Plants remain separated into individual cells while the complete batch can still be handled as a single tray.

Designed for tree & woody plant propagation

Young trees and many woody nursery crops can benefit from a deeper propagation container. The 15cm-deep cell profile provides greater vertical rooting space than a conventional shallow plug tray while retaining the production efficiency of a multi-cell format.

This makes the 2520 suitable for applications including tree seedlings, shrubs and other compatible nursery stock. The exact propagation period will depend on species, growing conditions, substrate, irrigation and the required size of the finished young plant.

28 cells for greater individual growing volume

When selecting a propagation tray, cell count should be considered alongside the volume available to each plant. A higher cell count increases the number of plants that can be propagated in a given tray area, while a lower cell count generally allows more substrate and rooting space per plant.

With 28 cells and approximately 390ml per cell, the Modiform 2520 prioritises individual plant volume. This makes it a strong choice where plant development and root space are more important than maximising the number of plugs per square metre.

Modiform PRISTINE material concept

The Modiform 2520 is supplied in the PRISTINE format. Rather than adding colour dye to create a uniform cosmetic finish, Modiform allows the recycled raw material to determine the appearance of the finished product.

As a result, PRISTINE trays can show natural colour variation between production batches. This variation is a characteristic of the material concept rather than a fault with the tray.

Professional nursery applications

Tree seedlings Deep individual cells provide useful rooting volume for establishing young trees.
Shrubs & woody plants Suitable for compatible nursery crops requiring more growing volume than a conventional small plug.
Forestry propagation 28-cell format allows batches of young plants to be handled efficiently during nursery production.
Young plant production Approximately 390ml of growing volume per cell provides useful space for developing plants.
Professional nurseries Suitable for repetitive propagation where consistent cell spacing and efficient tray handling are important.

Modiform 2520 PRISTINE Tree Tray FAQs

How many cells does the Modiform 2520 have?

The Modiform 2520 contains 28 individual propagation cells.

What are the dimensions of the Modiform 2520?

The tray measures approximately 53cm long x 30cm wide x 15cm high.

What is the volume of each cell?

Each cell provides approximately 390ml of growing volume.

What is the advantage of having only 28 cells?

The lower cell count allows substantially more growing medium and rooting space to be provided to each plant than in a high-density plug tray of a similar overall size.

Is the Modiform 2520 suitable for tree seedlings?

Yes. It is a Modiform Tree Tray designed for professional propagation applications where young trees and other compatible plants benefit from deep individual cells.

Can the tray be used for shrubs and other woody plants?

Yes. Its deep cells and generous individual growing volume also make it suitable for compatible shrubs and other woody nursery crops.

What does PRISTINE mean?

PRISTINE is Modiform's material concept in which additional colour dye is not used. Instead, the recycled raw material determines the finished appearance of the tray.

Can the colour of PRISTINE trays vary?

Yes. Because additional colour dye is not used, some variation in appearance can occur between production batches.

What material is the Modiform 2520 made from?

The 2520 is a thermoformed PS, or polystyrene, propagation tray.

What growing medium should be used?

Use a professional propagation substrate appropriate for the plant species and irrigation system. The substrate should provide the balance of moisture retention, drainage and aeration required by the crop.

Is the Modiform 2520 suitable for commercial nurseries?

Yes. The tray is designed for professional propagation and provides a practical way to handle 28 individually separated young plants as one production unit.

How many Modiform 2520 trays are supplied per pallet?

The pallet quantity is 980 trays.
