The Florida 18 is a Procona container for the transportation of cut flowers across the entire logistical chain, and also for retail sales. The Florida 18 container has been specifically developed for short flowers such as daffodils, short roses, tulips, anemones and hyacinths. All straight Florida collars fit inside the edge of this container.

Florida 18 containers can be used with the Florida top frame for longer flowers.
With this new container daffodils can be transported vertically instead of horizontally, with the result straight daffodils!

Just like all other Procona containers, the Florida 18 is stackable and fits on many types of pallet and acution trolleys.

Florida containers can be cutomized with your own printed message around the edge.

Florida 18 with hooks

In addition to the standard version there is also a Florida 18 container with hooks. The cardboard Florida collars have rectangular holes and the hooks in the edges of the Florida 18 container fit in these.

We recommend that Florida 18 with hooks and high collars should be packed in a wooden template or by using a cardboard insertion machine. Thanks to the hooks in the edge and the cardboard openings of the collar, the collar is linked to the container. The strapping band is removed when it comes to unpacking. Usually, when using a relatively low container the collar is pushed outwards from the edge due to the mass of the flower buds. As the hooks have now fastened the cardboard collars into the edges, the flowers can be removed from the container without any problem.

Transport of short and long flowers (re-closable)

The loose inspection flap means that the flowers can be checked without removing the strapping band. This is ideal for auctions or other logistical chains where there are interim checks.

Conical collars

Transport of flowers with a conical collar as topframe for transportation on trolleys.
