The packaging is reduced down to the bare minimum, printed on recycled cardboard with vegetable color.
DOUBLE, thanks to its accessories, allows you to create four different display solutions suitable for all needs: balcony planter, vertical garden, double or single vase! Double consists of two containers of eco-leather destined to landfill, four straps with k-way hooks and two wooden bars!
The packaging is kept to a minimum and allows easy transport even with plants.
ORTO COMUNITARIO - In many situations, the cement prevents the creation of even small green spaces, or makes difficult to maintain them.
The condominium management often produces not so stimulating results. because of this we create the community gardens, truly little green islands on wheels that can be easily arranged and moved as needed. Produced with beechwood pales, nylon belt, plywood base, fabric rubber-coated with drains in silicon rubber.
A special thanks goes to Molli for the pictures, Zio Ben for the location and support and to Albi for the patience ;)
