AP 4-6

Ellepot Paper

The AP 4-6 paper is a specialised propagation paper designed for short-cycle crops that require a balance of durability and environmental friendliness.


Engineered primarily from wood fibers sourced from FSC®-certified forests, it features a small admixture of polyester to provide the mechanical strength necessary for both manual and automated handling.


A key functional benefit of this paper is its ability to protect fragile root systems while remaining permeable enough for roots to penetrate easily after transplanting, which significantly reduces transplant shock and promotes uniform plant growth.

Technical Specs

  • Decomposition Time: Approximately 4–6 months, making it ideal for bedding flowers, lettuce, and other young plants with short propagation cycles.

  • Material Composition: Wood fibers (cellulose) reinforced with a polyester mesh for added strength.

  • Environmental Certification: FSC®-certified (Forest Stewardship Council), ensuring materials come from responsibly managed and renewable sources.

  • Protective Additives: Treated with a specific fungicide (intelligent additive) designed to protect the cellulose fibers from premature degradation during the initial growing phase.

  • Color: Available in Brown.

  • Primary Applications: Specifically recommended for plants subject to substantial handling, both mechanized and manual, and widely used in hydroponic and traditional nursery settings.

  • Root Health: Features a unique fibre web design that ensures high air-to-soil contact and allows for "air pruning" of the roots.
