New food-grade material integrates safety, durability, and reclaimed ocean plastics into next-generation cultivation systems

Mondi Products, the manufacturer behind the original patented 1020 Propagation Tray and Mini Greenhouse Humidity Dome, has announced the launch of Avara Technology, a proprietary food-grade material engineered to enhance safety, performance, and sustainability in horticultural tools and cultivation systems.

Designed to meet the evolving requirements of professional growers and environmentally conscious industries, Avara Technology is food-grade certified, BPA-free, non-off-gassing, reusable, recyclable, and incorporates reclaimed ocean plastics. The company positions the material as a milestone in its ongoing commitment to delivering high-performance solutions while reducing environmental impact.

“Avara Technology is more than a material, it’s a vision for the future of horticulture,” said Marko, President of Mondi Products. “It was developed to meet the real-world needs of growers who demand safety, sustainability, and durability. Avara reflects our commitment to innovation that protects both people and the planet.”

Engineered for long-term use, Avara Technology supports edible crop applications and promotes healthier environments for plants and growers alike. Its circular design approach emphasizes reuse and recyclability, aligning with broader industry efforts to reduce waste and transition toward more sustainable manufacturing models. By integrating reclaimed ocean plastics into its composition, the material also contributes to ecosystem restoration efforts.

Mondi’s product ecosystem—including its propagation trays and Mini Greenhouse humidity domes—has been redesigned around Avara Technology to streamline cultivation workflows. Features such as integrated tag slots, reinforced separation tabs, growth-tracking gradients, ergonomic grip channels, patented Easy Vents for precise airflow control, and lockable dome channels are engineered to improve efficiency and consistency throughout the grow cycle.

The company’s modular system is inter-nestable, stackable, and optimized for storage and transport, offering growers operational flexibility while reducing material waste. By combining thoughtful design with advanced materials science, Mondi aims to position Avara Technology as a benchmark for responsible innovation in horticulture.

With sustainability increasingly central to agricultural supply chains, the introduction of Avara Technology underscores Mondi Products’ strategy to align performance-driven design with environmental accountability, reinforcing its footprint in the professional growing and cultivation market.
