EBB & FLOW BENCHES AND
EBB & FLOW TRAYS

Ebb & Flow benches popularity is increasing for flood hydroponic growing.

The ebb and flow bench is a hydroponic system using ebb and flow plastic tops on greenhouse benches. They are also referred as ebb and flood trays and ebb and flood tables. The ebb and flow bench tops are made of plastic. The ebb & flow benches utilizes a flooding of the ebb and flow trays; depending upon container size and crop, after irrigation water is removed from the ebb and flow trays by special drainage and either recirculated or discharged.

Tops are supplied in gray as standard but are available in other colors at an additional charge and shipped directly from the factory in Europe. Minimum order 50 pieces.

Improving plant growth and saving water with Ebb & Flow Benches

Work with and around your plants without interfering the automatic irrigation cycle.

The Ebb and Flow tray system, also known as Flood and Drain, is the world’s most widely recognized professional irrigation system. It is a straightforward and efficient system that is easy to operate and maintain.

The process is simple:

• Place your plants in the tray, which is regularly filled with nutrient-enriched irrigation water supplied from a central reservoir
• The water is absorbed by the grow media and eventually distributed to the plants
• Excess water will by gravity naturally drain and return to the reservoir for reuse in later irrigation cycles

Ebb and Flow benches tray systems are designed for large-scale growers but can be configured to meet the needs of any grower or layout thanks to our unique and proprietary modular tooling system.

Ebb & Flow Benches Greenhouse Trays

Greenhouses utilize large trays for various reasons, each contributing to the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the greenhouse environment. With a greenhouse tray from USGR, you can provide a stable platform for plant growth, preventing overcrowding and ensuring efficient spacing to reduce competition for resources while at the same time minimizing disease risk and improving airflow.

These trays optimize space utilization, enabling growers to maximize greenhouse square footage and enhance production capacity. Above all, they facilitate effective water and nutrient management, capturing excess water in a contained space for nutrient solutions. Furthermore, their mobility and flexibility aid in layout adjustments and crop rotation, acting as a barrier against pests and diseases. Lastly, large greenhouse trays enhance labour efficiency by enabling access to multiple plants simultaneously, promoting plant health.

Ebb & Flow Benches Greenhouse Trays for Rolling Benches

Maximize growing space and promote a more organized operation with our greenhouse trays for rolling benches. The trays for rolling benches are available in various widths and configured lengths up to 60 feet.

If your bench is longer than 60 feet, we recommend splitting your trays into two or more pieces, so the coherent tray length does not exceed 60 feet.

For an additional charge we can supply tops with ultra violet light filter on outer surface which is added to polystyrene during the manufacturing process.

Some sizes are available in U.S. and Canadian inventory. Material can be ordered from the factory and shopped to warehouses in the U.S. and Canada if not available in the warehouse. Most sizes shipped directly from European factory. Many sizes available.

The standard ebb and flood tables for Europe are growing in popularity in the U.S. Because of the weight of the water in the ebb and flow flood trays, a strong under bench system is necessary.

Ebb and flow hydroponic tables greatly reduce labor.

Ebb and flow trays can be purchased separately. Ebb and flow trays are made of high density plastic. We ship the ebb & flow benches and ebb and flow trays worldwide from Europe and have many tray sizes in U.S. warehouse. Trays are made to fit over 30 sizes of greenhouse benches.
