As demand for greener products, less waste and the protection of important natural resources increases, Durstons Garden Products (Hall 20 C02) put exciting new peat-free launches front and centre at Glee 2022, allowing retailers to tap into a comprehensive offer that will satisfy the needs of their eco-savvy customers. 

Buyers welcomed the new opportunities Durstons’ peat-free collection presents and the chance to build consumer confidence in peat-free growing media, with products that are incredibly easy to use and that deliver consistently great results.

Durstons new multi-purpose peat-free compost and Organic Multi-Purpose Compost Peat Free has already generated a lot of interest on the first morning of the show. Both are produced entirely from renewable sources and provide excellent nutrient content. Good drainage and aeration, plus a wetting agent, helps nurture healthy root systems and keep plants thriving. Durstons’ unique GRO BOOST additive provides plants with a long-lasting nutrient boost throughout the growth cycle and helps maintain outstanding growing performance, reducing users’ reliance on peat.

The latest exciting addition to Durstons’ expanding portfolio, Peat Free Grow in the Bag, has also been extremely well received by the industry and has had a lot of enquiries from buyers who feel it plugs a gap in the peat-free market. The extra-large grow bag is the same size as Durstons’ Vegetable Planter and is perfect for growing a wide range of fruit, vegetables and salad crops. 

Durstons’ recent decision to revamp all product packaging has paid off, as visitors have praised the new look, with its eye-catching imagery and clear, concise messaging. Another big plus is that the packaging of all of Durstons Garden Products composts and grow bags is 100% recyclable, while 30% recycled material has also been incorporated into the polythene of their compost bags.
