Round pot 8 cm

Plastic pots provide a cost-effective and practical solution for seedling cultivation and growing smaller plants. However, it is important to follow certain safety guidelines during their use to avoid injury or damage to the pot. Below is the safety guide for using plastic pots:

Keep away from heat sources: Plastic pots are not suitable for use in extreme temperature conditions. Never place them near high-temperature heaters, grills, or other hot surfaces! These pots are typically made of polypropylene or polystyrene and have a low melting point (around 100-120 °C). Therefore, they can easily melt or deform if overheated.

Avoid open flames: Plastic pots can become flammable if exposed to open flames or direct heat. These products are not fire-resistant and should be kept away from any ignition sources. If plastic pots catch fire, dangerous, toxic smoke and gases may be released, which can be harmful to the respiratory system and the environment.

Avoid excessive pressure: Pots can easily become damaged if subjected to excessive pressure or impact. Do not place heavy objects on them, and handle them carefully during transplanting or moving.

Risk of breakage: While plastic pots are flexible, under certain conditions they can become brittle, especially in cold weather when the plastic can become rigid.

Avoid aggressive chemicals: Although plastic is resistant to some chemicals, acids, bases, or solvents can damage the material and reduce the product's lifespan.

Effects of UV radiation: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can damage the structure of plastic pots, making them brittle and prone to cracking over time. If possible, avoid placing them outdoors in strong sunlight for extended periods, or use UV-resistant products.

Recycling: Most plastic pots are recyclable. If you no longer use them, please check local waste disposal guidelines and ensure they are recycled properly.

Plastic planting pots are ideal for smaller gardening tasks, but their lifespan and durability depend on the conditions in which they are used. By following the above guide, you can ensure safe and effective use.
