The Next Generation in Sustainable Plant Protection
Introducing the PolyNatural® Vine Halo, the little brother of the Aqua Plant Protector, the innovative solution for safeguarding your young vines while caring for our planet. Engineered with a next-generation formula, these protectors are specifically designed to biodegrade in soil and aqua environments, setting the standard for ecofriendly viticulture products.
Why Choose PolyNatural® Vine Halos?
PolyNatural® Vine Halo are uniquely engineered to biodegrade in both aqua and soil environments. The main raw material has been independently tested for marine, water and soil biodegradation, ensuring that if the product ever reaches the waterways, it will naturally break down by being consumed by microbes. Importantly, these protectors also biodegrade on land through microbial activity. The length of time it takes to degrade will depend on the environment. The expected lifespan is 1-2 years.
While the marine biodegradability adds value by addressing the risk of land-based debris reaching the sea, the soil biodegradability ensures that PolyNatural® protectors are a responsible choice for all planting environments. As always, responsible disposal is encouraged, and these features are not an invitation to litter.
How do they work?
Biodegradation: Created using the same biotechnology as our award-winning Vine Clips, They are made from natural materials and produced through fermentation before being shaped into PolyNatural® Vine Halos
Eco-Performance: Around 41% of known microbes can use our material as a feed source, ensuring efficient and complete breakdown, completely avoiding microplastics or harmful residues.
Zero Microplastics: PolyNatural® Vine Halos do not add to plastic pollution.
