Description:
Profile Floral Foam is the plastic spongy material that florists use to put their many beautiful flower designs in place. It has effectively replaced the conventional way of arranging flowers which entailed utilizing wet newspaper, twigs, chicken wire and pin holders. The recurring problem in the past with these traditional methods of flower arrangement is the shorter lifespan of the floral designs that may take hours to create. Using floral foams not only helps in keeping the artistic designs in place, but they also make your flowers last longer. Floral foams have become a permanent staple in the art of flower arrangement. By providing trouble free support for flowers, many designs have been made achievable, giving flower arranging artists more room to come up with every design that they can imagine. Made of phenol material, floral foams are used as a base for mostly every conceivable design. It also holds water of about forty times it weight, making flowers survive approximately seven to ten days after being stemmed or cut from the plant. Foam Ingredients A solid plastic, in the shape of a small resin granule known as polystyrene, is the key ingredient used to make dry, hard floral foam. Additives can be included in the manufacturing process and a blowing agent is added to make the melting material foamable. Polyurethane is the main ingredient in liquid foam, along with a hardening agent. Standard Foam: Brick Size: 23 x 11 x 8cm Density of foam brick: 1.45 - 1.60 lb/ft³ Water absorption rate: 30 - 75 seconds pH of water solution: 3.00 - 4.00 pH of top: 2.50 - 3.20 pH of bottom: 3.00 - 4.50 Amount of water intake: 1.80 - 2.00kg Water drainage: <3% after 6hrs Types of Floral Foam Liquid Foam: Wet foam is used for fresh flowers. Highly water absorbent and very fine and compact. The wet foam is also available in many forms. Some are shaped into balls or spheres, for making pomanders or interesting centerpieces. For the use of bridal bouquets, they come with plastic holders. For the use of wreaths, they come with a plastic container in the shape of doughnut or heart shape. It all depends on what you're making. Process: Liquid floral foam is created when polyurethane is mixed with a hardening agent, producing a liquid. The liquid, once molded with the hardening agent is bottled and sold to consumers for use independently. The liquid expands into a foam shape once placed into another container, filling it with foam the exact size and shape of the object containing it. You can purchase this type of foam in 1, 5 and 55 gallon containers. Store it in tightly sealed containers that are housed in areas that have a minimum temperature of 65 degrees but do not exceed 90 degrees F. Dry Hard Foam: This is used for artificial flower arrangements. It is non-porous and coarse. Process: Polystyrene resin granules are input into an extrusion machine similar to the extruder used to manufacture polyester carpet in order to melt the hard, plastic pellets into a moldable product. Heat and pressure inside the machine, along with any additives used and the blowing agent, melts the granules of polystyrene and moves them in liquid form into a mold or die within the machine. The granules are then shaped into the desired form and trimmed as needed. Color foam It comes in block form, powder form, cube form and sphere form. Colors baby pink, cherry, charcoal, violet, pumpkin, ivory, lime green, sunny yellow, fuchsia, blue, hunter green, royal blue, rusty red, prairie grass and plum. Market Potential Floral Foam was not considered as essential part for decoration but now a day’s floral foam is one of the key parts of floral arrangements & decoration. Commercial floriculture is as beneficiary of the policy of crop diversification in agriculture. The growth in this segment is reflected in rising domestic demand for flower and floral exports. Commercial floriculture is increasingly being considered a high remunerative economic activity by small and large farmers across the country and if the sector gets organized, there could be a massive Rs. 10,000 crore business opportunity! It is worthwhile noting that despite India's share in the $ 11 billion global market for flowers and flower products having touched just about 0.65 per cent, the growth potential is large. ?

Description:
Floral foam is a dense, lightweight and porous material that can be cut into virtually any shape. It holds its shape when wet and provides both water and support to cut flower arrangements. The density of floral foam means that it holds large quantities of water, which in turn, increases the life of flowers. It also provides increased support to the flower stems, giving more control with flower arrangements. Floral foam originally appeared as a green brick. Today, it comes in various colors and a variety of shapes such as spheres, crosses or wreaths suitable for a variety of arranging needs.
In addition, floral foam is pH balanced. This means that the acidity of the environment which the flowers are placed in remains at the optimum level ultimately helping your flowers to last. Another important feature of floral foam is how quickly it will soak and absorb water. Floral foams have become a permanent staple in the art of flower arrangement. By providing trouble-free support for flowers, many designs have been made achievable, giving flower arranging artists more room to come up with every design that they can imagine.
As we can see that there is great demand for flowers in Indian society for example wedding, Valentine’s Day, birthday, anniversary and many more events. So increase in floriculture means increase in floral foam business. Thus, due to demand it is a good project for entrepreneurs to invest.
