Green Up Farm introduces TyfuClir—a grow tray that goes beyond traditional packaging to support plant health and growth.
Starting with a question
The company's journey began with a mission: 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.
From reuse to reinvention
Since 2021, Green Up Farm has focused on sustainability, starting with a successful return-and-reuse scheme for plastic trays and crates. However, the team realized the need for a more impactful solution. Instead of just replacing single-use plastics, they envisioned a product that supports growers and the environment.
More than a tray
TyfuClir is made from rPET and follows circular economy principles, ensuring durability and reuse, but its features go further:
"The clear design allows growers to easily inspect roots for health and growth, optimizing root health monitoring", they explain, adding its shallow depth encourages airflow and prevents overwatering, beneficial to optimized plant growth." The trays are built for reuse. "They are durable and easy to clean, TyfuClir supports multiple growing cycles without losing performance." And, as the end of life is coming in the end, the trays can be returned for reuse or repurposed for community projects, schools, or home gardens.
A tool for sustainable growth
Designed to reduce waste and improve cultivation practices, it aligns with Green Up Farm's commitment to sustainable innovation. "By choosing TyfuClir, growers are investing in sustainability. The tray reduces reliance on single-use plastics while enhancing crop quality and operational efficiency."
"From vertical farms to home gardeners, this product offers a versatile and eco-friendly solution for all growing needs", they conclude.
