Cultivation Equipment
Cultivation benches and hydroponic insert trays with an ebb-and-flow (flood-and-drain) system for growing flowers, ornamental plants and seedlings in nurseries, garden centres and greenhouses.
Cultivation units (benches)
Cultivation units (benches) are designed for placing and tending plants: growing flowers and ornamental plants in nurseries, holding pots with seedlings in garden centres, and organising seedling and lettuce sections in greenhouses.
How it works
Plants in pots or trays are placed on the tabletop. Watering is carried out through an ebb-and-flow (flood-and-drain) system.
Water is supplied into the tray through valves, filling it to a set level with a pump.
Water drains away through a valve and hose into the drainage system.

Insert trays for cultivation units
Insert trays are designed to be placed on top of cultivation benches as a hydroponic tray with an ebb-and-flow system. They hold pots and trays, supply and drain water, protect the bench from moisture, and distribute moisture evenly to the roots.
Design features
- Longitudinal and transverse channels for even water distribution
- Drain channels for complete water removal
- Protection against ultraviolet radiation
- Standard 3 mm thickness — service life of at least 5 years
- Reinforced 4 mm version — service life of up to 10 years
- Transported disassembled

Frequently asked questions
- What is an ebb-and-flow system?
- The bench is flooded with nutrient solution from below, plants take up moisture through the roots, then the solution drains back. Foliage stays dry and water and fertilizer use is lower than with overhead watering.
- Are benches made to my size?
- Yes, bench dimensions are matched to the geometry of the greenhouse or hall — from aisle width to total row length.
- Where are cultivation benches used?
- In nurseries, garden centres and greenhouses — for flowers, ornamentals and seedlings. In other words, wherever growing happens on benches rather than in soil.
