Pagter has spent more than 30 years developing and producing packaging systems that keep cut flowers in water from producer to consumer. The company began in 1992, when Jan de Pagter devised the reusable Procona flower bucket in his Dinteloord garage, and it has since grown into a global partner for the floriculture and retail sectors. Based in Oud Gastel, Pagter also makes water-retaining Porto shipping packaging and adaptable displays that carry the flowers from transport to the point of sale.
