Bedding Trays

Kay-Metzeler (KM) is one of the largest manufacturers of a wide variety of high density expanded polystyrene (EPS) Seedling and Bedding Trays in the UK. Whilst a large range is produced and readily available for normal horticultural use, the Company will design and produce trays to satisfy any special requirements.

Advantages

  • KM EPS Bedding Trays retain warmth.
  • KM Bedding Trays are not so readily affected by extremes in ambient temperature as trays made from thinner or less insulating materials.
  • KM High Density Bedding Trays are rigid, robust and durable to facilitate handling and storage.
  • All KM Bedding Trays have drainage holes which also makes them ideal for use with capillary mats and beds.
  • Depth of Bedding Trays allows a good volume of compost to be included.

Danish Trolley

A special range of Bedding Plant Trays designed for use with Danish Trolley Systems. Two KM Danish Trolley Trays occupy the equivalent area as the standard Euro Pot Tray offering growers a completely versatile system.

The Danish Trolley System is now increasingly used by growers. With an ever expanding range of product, growers can fully exploit the system at all stages of plant production.
The symmetrical size and shape make these units ideal for all types of mechanical handling, filling, sowing and growing systems as well as for growers not using Danish Trolleys.

The KM Danish Trolley System materially assists in rationalising the wide range of products availabel to growers.
Products available for the Danish Trolley System comprise:
Ref:L509 DT.D6 (Double six cells)
Ref:L511 DT.D12 (Double twelve cells)
Ref:L514 DT.D20 (Double twenty cells)
Ref:L518 DT.D8 (4 strips of 4 cells)
Ref:L519 DTM.25 (5 strips of 5 cells)
Ref:L592 DT 3 x 4 (3 strips of 4 cells)

Two Bedding Plant Trays fit in place of one pot plant carrying tray. It is now therefore possible to mix bedding and pot plants on the same shelf without waste of space on the trolley.
Important The overall area of these trays is the same as the English Standard Bedding Trays but the shape has been changed slightly to fit the trolley shelf accurately.
Overall size of Tray: 307mm x 264mm
