FibreFloral™ 100% Natural Stitch Foam Blocks

Natural Flower Arrangement Solution

FibreFloral™ floral foam blocks from Smithers-Oasis offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional floral foam blocks. They are made from volcanic basalt rock and a biobased binder. These blocks are designed for both professional florists and home flower lovers.

Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly

Because FibreFloral™ blocks are a 100% natural product, they possess excellent water storage capacity and rapid soakability. As a result, flowers stay fresh longer and optimally hydrated. In addition, the optimal pH ensures that these blocks are suitable for most flower types.

Features

FibreFloral™ floral foam blocks are made from volcanic basalt rock, a renewable and natural resource. The biobased binder is derived from rapidly renewable materials. These blocks offer excellent water storage and keep flowers fresh and hydrated for a long time. They have rapid absorption, making them ready for use immediately after immersion. The optimal pH makes them suitable for most flower types. In addition, they are reusable for growing plants from cuttings and seeds and have a natural color for an organic and authentic look to floral arrangements.

Versatile in Use

You can use FibreFloral™ blocks for both fresh and dried flowers. The natural color and texture make it easy to create beautiful, natural floral designs. These blocks are ideal for a variety of applications. Each block measures 23 x 11 x 8 cm and comes in a box of 20.

Safe and Easy to Use

FibreFloral™ Design Media is non-toxic, so additional protective equipment for hands, eyes, skin and respiratory tract is not necessary. However, you can use these as needed.

Reuse as FibreFloral™ or Potting soil substitute

The material of the blocks is not only durable, but also versatile in use. Leftover blocks do not need to be thrown away. You can perfectly use these pieces as a substitute for (potting) soil in plant arrangements. Used blocks, in which flowers have stood, can also be cut or torn small for reuse. Because the material is lightweight, the blocks are much lighter than potting soil. Thanks to the nutritious composition of basalt meal and sucrose, plants grow particularly well on them.

Another option is to wrap the used material with chicken wire and use it again, as the water absorption remains adequate.

Composting

If the material can no longer be reused, you can deposit it in small pieces in the compost bin. Blocks are also good for funeral arrangements. They can be shredded together with the flowers and then deposited in the compost pile. In Scandinavia, this is already done in cemeteries. Basalt meal is an excellent soil conditioner; any garden will benefit.

The shredded parts will eventually decompose into basaltic flour within a certain time, depending on conditions such as heat, cold, moisture and dryness. This is similar to fine sand.

Responsible Waste Management

After use, the FibreFloral™ blocks can be easily disposed of with regular waste. The packaging, consisting of cardboard, can be recycled.

Summary of Benefits

FibreFloral™ floral foam blocks are 100% natural and sustainable, made entirely from natural materials without petrochemicals. They are reusable; leftovers can be used as potting soil substitute. Being safe, they do not irritate the skin or leave harmful microfibers. The blocks retain their shape, cling well in vases and pots, and are easy to use because they absorb water quickly and are easy to cut into any desired shape.
