50 Cell Danbar Crates - 50mm Square Tube Capacity - Air Pruning & Commercial Propagation Tray

50 CELL DANBAR CRATES - 50mm Square Tube Capacity - Air Pruning & Commercial Propagation Tray

This 50 Cell Danbar Crate is a specialized, Australian-made propagation system designed to hold 50mm square propagation tubes. The unique elevated design is engineered to facilitate natural air pruning of roots, which is crucial for producing robust, healthy, non-circling root systems in young plants.

Best For Professional nurseries, commercial growers, forestry propagation facilities, revegetation projects, and large-scale growers focused on producing high-quality stock with superior root structure for better field survival and growth.

Key Features

• 50-Cell High-Volume Capacity: Efficiently organizes and manages 50 individual 50mm square propagation tubes, maximizing bench space for intensive production.

• Optimized Air Pruning System: The crate elevates the tubes, allowing developing roots to dry out upon reaching the bottom opening, naturally terminating root growth and preventing root circling (J-rooting).

• Built for 50mm Square Tubes: Perfectly sized grid ensures stable, secure placement and easy handling of standard 50mm square propagation tubes.

• Made in Australia Quality: Constructed from durable, high-quality material designed to withstand repeated cleaning, sterilization, and the rigors of a commercial nursery environment.

• Promotes Root Health: By forcing lateral root branching instead of circling, the crate ensures the production of superior, vigorous plants that establish quickly after transplanting.

Sizes Available

Supplied as a single 50-cell crate. (Note: Propagation tubes sold separately.)

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.

Business Delivery:

• Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
• If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
• If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
• Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
