Grower: Pretreatments
Immediately after harvesting, the flower has been cut off the plant which
was providing nutrients, water and hormones essential for life. These
physiological conditions require addressing immediately to prepare the flower
for the next stage of the distribution chain. Chrysal pre-treatment products
are tailored to particular flower species to prevent loss of quality at
this stage of the flower's life. Think of pre-treatments as first-aid for
flowers.
Bouquet Maker, Wholesaler & Florist
Tailored to these segments of the distribution chain, three unique products
for our industry professionals meet the specific needs of each area of the
market place; each of which has been formulated to the specific needs of
flowers in every link of the chain. Feeding the flower with the same product
when in a foam arrangement as when it's just been harvested would mean that
the flowers would develop fully and therefore dramatically reduce vase life.
Similarly using a grower product in the vase would result in the flowers
not developing enough; therefore it is imperative that the correct product
be used at the appropriate stage in the "Chain of Life" of the flower. This
ensures maximum flower quality, minimum shrink, increased profits and satisfied
customers which will of course encourage repeat purchases and word of mouth
advertising. You're only as strong as your weakest link. Chrysal provides
proper care at every step.
Chrysal Professional #1: Is used by wholesalers and bouquet-makers
for re-hydrating and conditioning. The product contains no food and as such
is recommended for use between 4 - 48 hours. Our tests have proven that
flowers need a minimum of 4 hours for any hydration solution to effectively
work its way up the stem.
Chrysal Clear Professional #2: Is used by wholesalers, bouquet makers
and retailers for shipping, storing and displaying flowers. When flowers
are in ambient temperatures, this results in a higher metabolic rate (energy/food
requirement for the flower). Chrysal Clear Professional #2 provides just
enough food to last the sales period without over feeding or opening buds
and is available in liquid concentrate or pre-dosed easy to use Chrysal
T-Bags.
Chrysal Clear Professional #3: Is used by florists and bouquet makers
for all vase and foam arrangements. To ensure bud opening and flower development
this solution must be used only when arranging. It enhances scent, size,
as well as, maintaining true bloom color and optimum vase life. Chrysal Clear
Sachets are filled with this same solution for consumers. A sachet should be
provided to customers with all flower sales. This will ensure maximum vase life by
having consumers finalize the "Chain of Life". The Chrysal sachet also tells
consumers you care for their flowers, guaranteeing repeat sales and word of mouth
advertising.
