The HC Companies Euro Greenhouse Round Pot | 6.62in Diam x 5in H - Max Liquid Volume: 2.0qt - Black (Case of 300)

Light-Blocking Round Pot Sized for European Bench Systems, Euro Greenhouse

European greenhouse benches and trays are frequently sized to metric and profile standards that don't always line up cleanly with pots built to North American bench dimensions. The HC Companies Euro Greenhouse Round Pot is profiled specifically to fit European-style greenhouse benches and trays, with co-extruded dual-color walls that keep the interior dark so light doesn't reach the root zone.

This Black, 6.62in Diam x 5in H pot holds 2.0qt maximum liquid volume, ships in a case of 300, and pairs with TRS06171 and TIS66650 trays for growers standardizing on the Euro profile.

Key Features & Benefits

• Euro-profile bench fit — matches the bench and tray dimensions common to European-style greenhouse layouts rather than a North American profile.
• Co-extruded interior barrier — fuses a light-blocking layer into the wall during molding, cutting off light before it reaches the growing medium's surface.
• Drainage spread across the base — channels excess water out through several points instead of funneling it through one central opening.
• Rim built for automated handling — resists cracking or deforming through the repeated gripping cycles of a high-speed potting line.

Who Should Use This

Greenhouse operations running European-profile bench and tray systems, or growers on automated potting lines who need consistent rim strength across thousands of cycles, are the right fit for this pot.

About The HC Companies

The HC Companies builds its Euro Greenhouse round pot to match the bench and tray standards common outside North America, part of a container lineup the company manufactures out of Twinsburg, Ohio for commercial growers worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this pot suited to European greenhouse layouts specifically?

It's profiled to match the bench and tray dimensions common in European-style greenhouse systems, so it seats correctly in trays like TRS06171 and TIS66650 without the fit issues a standard North American profile pot might create. Confirm your specific bench and tray hardware against those tray codes before ordering at scale.

Why does the interior need to block light?

Co-extrusion fuses a dark layer into the pot wall as it's formed, rather than coating it on afterward, so light is cut off from the growing medium's surface from day one. That matters most for controlling algae, which spreads fastest on a wet, sunlit surface.

How does this pot hold up on automated potting lines?

Its rim is engineered to resist cracking or deforming through the thousands of grip-and-release cycles a high-speed automated line runs it through in a shift. That's a different demand than manual potting places on a pot.

What is the maximum liquid volume of this pot?

It's rated to 2.0qt within a 6.62in Diam x 5in H shell, measured at a full-to-the-brim fill. Growers filling to that spec should leave room for the plant's root ball and crown, since the number reflects the container's brim-full capacity rather than realistic potting headspace.
