Who is Root Pouch?

The bags have been designed by the family-owned Root Pouch company in Hillsboro, Oregon, USA, and manufactured by a partner company in China. Root Pouch manufactures their own fabrics; hence, the quality and ingredients are strictly controlled.  

When you buy your Root Pouch bag from us, you can be assured that you are purchasing a product with an outstanding international reputation for innovation, quality and a heart for the environment.

Each pallet of Root Pouch grow bags diverts an average of 10,200 plastic water bottles from landfills and the ocean, eliminating the need to create new black plastic pots from fossil fuels! Not one drop of new fossil fuel is used to manufacture these bags. In 2020 alone, 1,200 tons of recycled plastic water bottles were used (certified by the Global Recycle Standard). This quantity has increased over subsequent years! 

Listen to the philosophy of Jim Averna, the inventor and founder of the business, as he explains how he decided the horticultural world desperately needed a sustainable, ecological alternative to plastic pots.
