More than just a company – we connect plant producers, wholesalers and retailers across Europe.
About us
Cooperating to significantly reduce single-use plastic in the green sector - that is the goal of the Euro Plant Tray members.
Unique in Europe, 8 members founded Euro Plant Tray eG in August 2022, and by summer 2023 EPT already counts 30 members who jointly develop the European industry standard for reusable plant packaging. As a result, not only the practical EPT trays are created from the industry for the industry, but also rental models that support the industry in its sustainability transition in a liquidity protecting way and relevant service offers.
EU policy also confirms the proactive work of Euro Plant Tray eG: with the PPWR decision of the EU Parliament (Packaging & Packaging Waste Regulation, April 2024), the use of single-use plastic for national transports and transports within a company group will no longer be permitted from January 2030.
Thank you for your trust
The development of the EPT Pool is financed by Crowd Invest, among others. We would like to thank all investors and our partners for supporting sustainable change in the Green industry.
