Plantability

Products that can be planted offer extra eco-friendly benefits

Implications - Creating a product that is eco-friendly is one thing; creating something that can also be planted is quite another. More brands are experimenting with items that are plantable, infusing products with germinating and blossoming qualities that provide even more environmental benefits than what is expected of eco products today. The ability to be planted ensures a product goes above and beyond basic eco standards to meet the growing demands of today's green-conscious consumer.
