are 100% peat-free and are from sustainable sources. Many of Melcourt’s products
are Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), certificated. thus meeting the growing
demand for sustainable gardening products with a light environmental footprint.
This product range is ideal for landscape supply centres and` specialist garden
centres.
“The packaging and presentation is particularly strong, with bold colours to
distinguish the different grades so the product has appeal to both trade and
retail customers,” says Andrew Hemmings of Adrian Hall Garden Centres. “The
content of the bag lives up to the image on the outside, is consistent and of
excellent quality. Importantly, the bag size, at 75litre, ensures that the range
represents perceived good value from the start. As always, you only ‘get what
you pay for’, and both we and our customers must agree on this one, due to the
increased volume we are selling. Melcourt Bark may not initially appear to be
the cheapest, but actually represents excellent all round ‘value for money’. An
excellent, well presented range of bark products, that is sensibly priced, and
our customers buy in preference to others.”
