Whilst Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is commonly known for its use in packaging and insulation, EPS
has various applications in agriculture. Here are some notable uses:
- Seedling Trays and Pots: EPS trays are used for starting seeds because they are lightweight, easy to handle, and provide good insulation to protect young plants.
- Root Protection: EPS pots are beneficial for root growth due to their insulation properties, protecting roots from extreme temperature fluctuations.
- Floating Rafts in Aquaponics: EPS is used to create floating rafts in aquaponic systems. These rafts support plants while their roots dangle into nutrient-rich water below, combining fish farming and plant cultivation.
- Temperature Control: EPS is used in the construction of cold storage facilities for agricultural produce. Its excellent insulation properties help maintain the desired temperatures and reduce energy consumption.
