Stories that stack up

How growers, exporters, and retailers use Procona to cut costs and deliver better flowers.

 with flower buckets

Transport costs down 22%, flower waste below 2%. We're on cycle 70 with the original batch — and they still stack perfectly with last month's order. Why replace what already works?

Same design for 20+ years. On purpose.

Procona® isn't just a bucket — it's a complete transport system. Bucket holds water, collar protects stems, lid ventilates and enables stacking. That's it. Simple by design.

Bucket

Collar

Cardboard (FSC, single-use) or polypropylene (reusable 40–50×). Custom printable from 5000+ units.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Procona reusable flower bucket system.

What is Procona?

Procona is a reusable rectangular flower bucket system designed for the entire floral supply chain. Headquartered in Pagter, Netherlands, Procona serves growers, distributors, and retailers worldwide with buckets that keep flowers hydrated from farm to shelf.

How many times can a Procona bucket be reused?

Each Procona bucket is engineered for 80 to 100+ reuse cycles, with an industry-leading damage rate of under 2%. This durability translates directly into lower per-use costs compared to single-use or short-lifespan alternatives.

What makes Procona different from round flower buckets?

Procona's rectangular design eliminates the wasted space between round buckets, fitting 25% more flowers per pallet. This means fewer trucks, lower shipping costs, and a smaller carbon footprint across your entire logistics chain.

What Procona models are available?

Procona offers four models to suit different needs: the Valencia, Amsterdam, London, and Florida. Each is optimized for specific flower types, stem lengths, and supply chain requirements. Explore all models above to find the right fit.

Are Procona buckets sustainable and recyclable?

Yes. Procona buckets are made from 50% recycled polypropylene and are 100% recyclable at end of life. Combined with 80-100+ reuse cycles and 25% fewer transport trips, they significantly reduce waste and emissions across the flower supply chain.

How does the Procona system work?

Flowers are placed in water-filled Procona buckets at the grower and stay hydrated through distribution, auction, transport, and retail. After use, empty buckets are collected, cleaned, and returned to growers for the next cycle.

Where can I buy Procona buckets?

Procona works directly with growers, distributors, and retailers. Contact our team for a custom proposal including pricing, logistics setup, and return cycle planning tailored to your operation.

Can Procona buckets go directly to retail display?

Absolutely. Procona buckets are designed to be display-ready, so retailers can place them directly on the shop floor. This eliminates the need to re-cut and re-bucket flowers, saving labor and keeping blooms fresher for customers.
