Unfortunately, there are no agreed flowers pack rates commonly-accepted and used by the farms, since they use boxes of various sizes. In recent years, Ecuadorian and Colombian flowers farms use so-called jumbo boxes - large size boxes that can hold maximum stems number without risk of flowers damage in the transportation.
 
Below you will find approximate sizes of these boxes, but then again, the farms may order the boxes from different carton manufacturers and boxes may slightly vary from each other in size.


In our system this kind of box is called 0.5 fb or half box / tabaco box /
About 90% of flowers are sent in this type of boxes to the airports.

Coupled half boxes form 1.0 fb or full box.


Some of the farms, but not all of them, are equipped with special small quattro boxes / 0.25 fb.
These boxes are often used for alstroemeria or carnations packing (less often for roses), when the customer orders that type of flowers in less quantity than 0.5 fb capacity. Quattro boxes are also preferable for wholesale customers who distribute the flowers to their clients in small convenient lots.

It bears repeating that pack rates are not standardized. Even if the farm has some specific boxing standards for 80 cm roses per 0.5 fb (for example, 150 stems = 6 bunches per 25 stems each), all the same, when the farm has the flowers aplenty, they will try to put an extra bunch into the box to send in a total of 175 stems. In case of poor flowers harvest but a long order book, the farms tend to reduce each box for one bunch volumizing a number of boxes as a result, and pretend to execute the orders in the best way.


Upon requests of our Customers we post on our website the pack rates provided by farms, that we regularly work with. The data is averaged over the last three weeks.

Packing statistics of each variety is available for the Customers in a variety card on the tab "Preferences, Prices, Pack Rates". 
A little later, we will open online access for our customers to the flowers pack rates of each farm. It will be available in Farms Catalogue.


Unfortunately, there are no agreed flowers pack rates commonly-accepted and used by the farms, since they use boxes of various sizes. In recent years, Ecuadorian and Colombian flowers farms use so-called jumbo boxes - large size boxes that can hold maximum stems number without risk of flowers damage in the transportation.
