Sharing knowledge with customers and distributors
Bato Plastics BV is a Dutch horticultural supplier. It specialises in injection-moulded plastic horticultural products that are sold to growers in the vegetable, soft fruit and floriculture sectors. Bato also develops and produces injection-moulded plastic products for the technical sector. In addition to its permanent wide range of products for horticulture, Bato is continuously working alongside its partners on innovation and product development. This has resulted in some fantastic partnerships and bespoke products. The interest in the horticultural sector for bio-based plastics is growing, so Bato is producing more and more products from biodegradable organic materials.
Bato is committing itself as an innovation partner to Delphy ISFC because, as an innovative company, Bato wants to play a part to further developments in soft fruit cultivation and the soft fruit sector. Bato: ‘We want to share as much knowledge as possible with our customers and distributors’. It is a major advantage that products can be presented to customers in a practical situation at Delphy ISFC.
