Natural Rubber Root Trainer (8 Cells)

This plastic-free 8 cell root trainer is made of FSC-certified, fair trade, pure natural rubber, making it both ethical and sustainable. It’s also sturdy and reusable. Ideal for growing plants that are sensitive to root disturbance or require deeper rooting space e.g. peas and beans.

Unlike brittle plastic root trainers that often crack and become sharp, this root trainer is soft and flexible so it’s more comfortable to use, as well as durable.

The natural rubber is both FSC 100%-certified and Fair Rubber Association-certified. It’s sourced from farmers on plantations in Sri Lanka that are certified not to have replaced old forest, and the rubber is grown and produced sustainably without the use of chemicals. The primary producers are paid a fair-trade premium to ensure the continued improvement of their working and living conditions.

Many rubber plantations are threatened with conversion to palm oil or beef production so when you buy this rubber you ensure the survival of an important, natural resource.
