It began with a question
The team’s journey began with a question: How to reduce single-use plastics in the fresh produce industry. This led to the development of TyfuClir, a product that combines material innovation, functionality and environmental responsibility.
Commitment to sustainability
Since 2021, Green Up Farm has focused on sustainability, starting with a successful return-and-reuse scheme for all their plastic trays and crates. However, the team soon realised the need for a more impactful solution. Instead of just replacing single-use plastics, they envisioned a product that supports both growers and the environment.
Innovation in fresh produce packaging
TyfuClir is made from Clear rPET plastic and follows circular economy principles, ensuring durability and reuse, it has been purposefully designed for the microgreens industry and is suitable for both commercial and home growers.
They claim that, “The clear design allows for easy monitoring of root health, giving growers confidence at every stage”, they go on to explain, its shallow depth encourages airflow and prevents overwatering, ensuring healthy thriving crops. “They are durable and easy to clean, supporting multiple growing cycles without loss of performance.” They added.
From packaging solution to growing revolution
The TyfuClir tray has been designed to act as an all-in-one-growing and packaging solution. Enabling commercial growers to cultivate and sell living produce all in one tray.
By offering this revolutionary tool to the microgreens sector, customers can look forward to receiving fresh, high-quality microgreens with excellent shelf life in easy-to-use packaging. The tray can then be returned for reuse or repurposed for community projects, schools or kitchen gardens.
TyfuClir is also the perfect choice for environmentally conscious home growers who are looking for a sustainable and cost-effective solution to grow their own deliciously heathy microgreens.
“From vertical farms to home gardeners, this new product offers a versatile and eco-friendly solution for all your growing needs”, they conclude.
