Bacsac Flowerpot Red Textile. Dimensions: Ø 40 x H 40 cm – 50 Litres.
Nature's in the bag! The French brand, BacSac, offers a collection of fabric
flower pots with an urban and casual look. These, ultra light and portable
flexible bags are a designer alternative to traditional pots that are too
cumbersome and unaffordable. This flowerpot is made from Batyline® cloth. This
water- and air-permeable fabric encourages the growth of plants: it limits
evaporation, lets the soil breathe and protects the roots. The
technically-advanced double wall maintains the balance required between the air,
soil and water. Inside a combination of hydrophilic felts protects the roots,
absorbs and spreads out the water. BacSac therefore gets close to the conditions
of a plant in open ground. Extremely resistant, the Bacsac pot has nothing to
fear from impacts or frost. The fabric is resistant to wear and tear, UV rays
and extreme temperatures (-30°C to 70°C). This „featherweight“ pot can be
moved very easily, even when it is full, thanks to its two sturdy handles. The
practical pot folds up in the blink of an eye to be stored anywhere and is
machine washable. The Bacsac flowerpots are available in a variety of sizes, in
free-standing or hanging versions… Something to create a real little piece of
nature in the city as well as the country. WHY DO PLANTS GROW BETTER IN
A BACSAC THAN IN A TRADITIONAL POT? The complex BACSAC® textile allows the
soil and the roots to breathe, therefore getting closer to the conditions of a
plant in open ground. This air circulation avoids overheating seen in
traditional pots during heat waves, which is harmful for roots and soil
micro-organisms. It regulates the humidity by allowing excess water to drain and
evaporate. In a traditional pot, the roots grow in a spiral along the wall and
create a root coil which, in the long term, causes the roots to be strangled and
weakens the plant in winter in the event of frost. In a BACSAC®, the root
system is more dense and more balanced as when the root reaches the fabric wall,
upon contact with the air, it stops and the plant grows new roots. The roots
will, as such, seek nutrients throughout the surface of the clump of soil,
encouraging the plant to grow uniformly.
