FloraLife Introduces New Bouquet Wrap for Shipping and Transport

FloraLife, a division of Smithers-Oasis Company, has introduced its Bouquet Wrap to prevent wilting of cut flowers and bouquets during shipping and transport.

The new FloraLife Bouquet Wrap is a highly absorbent material that continuously hydrates flowers for at least two days during shipping so that they arrive at their destination hydrated.

“The ‘last mile of the floral bouquets’ journey into the hands of the consumer is the most difficult,” says Jim Daly, Vice President of FloraLife’s Grower Global Operations and Corporate Research. “FloraLife Bouquet Wrap ensures that flowers reach the end consumer looking fresh, hydrated, nourished, and full of colors.”

To use FloraLife Bouquet Wrap, the highly absorbent material is dipped in a water and flower food solution. It is then wrapped around the flowers’ stem ends and sealed in a bag to prevent leakage. Flowers can then be transported upright or lying down without concern for spills.

The FloraLife brand includes a complete line of products that support the entire cut-flower distribution chain from harvest to vase, from growers to wholesalers, and from supermarkets and retail shops to the consumer. FloraLife branded products provide the ultimate enjoyment experience for the end consumer with solutions for pretreatment, hydration, transport and storage, and flower food solutions for nourishment and conditioning.
