The Aeroplas 0.9L Round Slotted Pot in Taupe is a professional nursery and retail plant pot featuring an integrated 25mm label slot for secure, clearly visible plant identification.

With a nominal capacity of 0.9 litres, this compact round pot is ideal for young plants, herbs, bedding plants, smaller ornamentals and other nursery crops requiring a practical container that can progress from production through to retail.

Finished in taupe, the pot offers a softer, more contemporary alternative to a conventional black nursery pot, making it particularly attractive for plants intended to remain in their production pot at the point of sale.

UK manufactured by Aeroplas

Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer specialising in plastic products for the professional horticultural industry. Its range of pots, carry trays and related products is designed specifically around the needs of commercial growers, nurseries and garden retailers.

This specialist horticultural focus is particularly relevant with products such as the slotted pot range. Features such as the integrated label position address a genuine nursery requirement, allowing crop identification and presentation to be incorporated into the container itself.

Aeroplas also has a longstanding involvement in the horticultural plastics sector and the industry's work towards more practical recycling and circular use of plastic products, alongside the benefits of manufacturing here in the UK.

Integrated 25mm plant label slot

Reliable plant identification is essential throughout commercial production. Different cultivars can appear extremely similar during early growth, while retail plants need clear identification and care information for customers.

The integrated 25mm label slot provides a defined location for a compatible plant label. This keeps identification directly associated with the container and avoids the need to add a separate external label holder or clip.

Labels can be used for cultivar names, crop information, barcodes, pricing, care instructions or branded retail information depending on the grower's requirements and the label system being used.

Taupe finish for a more retail-friendly presentation

Taupe provides a neutral, understated alternative to traditional black nursery plastic. Its softer appearance works particularly well with plants being produced for garden centre and retail environments.

This makes the 0.9L slotted pot useful where growers want one container to perform both production and presentation roles. Plants can be grown, labelled, transported and sold in the same pot without necessarily requiring an additional decorative outer container.

Ideal for nursery & retail plant production

The 0.9L format is suitable for a wide range of appropriate crops, including:

  • Young ornamental plants
  • Herbs
  • Bedding plants
  • Rooted cuttings being grown on
  • Seed-raised plants
  • Compact perennials
  • Seasonal flowering plants
  • Retail-ready nursery plants

The correct container size will depend on the individual crop, its root development, growth rate and the length of time it is expected to remain in the pot.

Growing in a 0.9L nursery pot

A 0.9L container provides a useful intermediate growing volume for plants that have progressed beyond small propagation cells but do not yet require a larger finished container.

Select a professional growing medium appropriate to the crop, with the required balance of moisture retention, drainage, aeration and nutrient availability. Avoid excessive compaction during filling, as healthy root development requires adequate air within the growing medium.

Monitor moisture according to the crop and environmental conditions rather than relying on a fixed irrigation timetable. Smaller containers can dry relatively quickly as plants establish and develop a larger canopy.

Designed for commercial growing at scale

The combination of a practical 0.9L volume, integrated labelling and professional presentation makes this Aeroplas pot particularly suitable for growers producing plants in quantity for wholesale and retail markets.

Standardising around a consistent pot and label format can simplify potting, crop identification, stock management, picking and dispatch across a commercial nursery.

With 6,480 pots per full pallet, the format is suitable for substantial production programmes while retaining the flexibility required for multiple plant varieties and product lines.
