Aqua-tray
Optimal Support for Every Bulb
The Aqua-tray is a tulip forcing tray equipped with 26 rows of 22 pins. The specially designed pin tips make both manual and automated planting simple and efficient. At the same time, they ensure that each bulb (tulip or hyacinth) remains securely in place throughout the entire growing process.
Thanks to the unique design of this pin tray, the roots grow beneath an integrated bridge structure. When the first bulb is harvested, only that bulb is removed. The remaining bulbs remain undisturbed and are even pulled more firmly onto their pins in the Aqua-tray, providing additional stability during the remainder of the cultivation period.
Smart Overflow Channels
The Aqua-tray is equipped as standard with four unique overflow channels. This redesigned system regulates excess water without allowing it to escape outside the tray. As a result, water remains contained within the tray, reducing both water loss and contamination.
Suitable for Various Bulb Sizes
Tulip
Hyacinth
Three Versions Available
For every tray crate height, the Aqua-tray is available in three versions:
- With a plug hole for an optional plug
- Fully closed version with pins
- Version with an integrated fixed plug. The integrated plug offers several advantages over a separate plug: there is no risk of a leaking plug (a leaking plug may render the crate unusable), while also reducing costs.
Available in Two Heights
Aqua-tray 16.5 cm
The 16.5 cm tray version is fully compatible with the previous Aqua-tray model.
Benefits:
- More crates per square metre in the preparation area
- Easy transition from existing systems
- Optimal use of available space
Aqua-tray 18 cm
The 18 cm tray version can be seamlessly combined with existing tulip forcing trays on the market.
Benefits:
- Longer residence time in the preparation area
- Less time required in the forcing area
- Greater flexibility in cultivation planning
Optimised for Automation
The Aqua-tray has been designed for efficient handling within automated growing systems. Thanks to its precise dimensions, the tray is suitable for both automation lines and automatic bulb planting machines. This enables fast and uniform bulb processing while contributing to a more efficient production process with reduced manual labour.
Strong, Durable and Reliable
The Aqua-tray is manufactured from a unique PP compound that combines high rigidity with excellent impact resistance. The result is a highly dimensionally stable crate that has proven its performance for many years in automated processing environments. In addition, the tray is easy to clean and designed for long-term intensive use.
The Aqua-tray delivers maximum stability, optimal water management, and proven durability for a more efficient cultivation process.
