Nursery Supplies Premier Pressure-Formed Container | PF310 PS - Trade #1 - Trade Size 1Gal - Round - Black - 6-1/8in x 7in H - .65 Gallons (Case of 80)

Pressure-Formed Container Tougher Than Blow-Molded Pots, 6-1/8in x 7in H

Blow-molded pots keep costs down, but the process leaves some sidewall thickness variation that can become a weak point over a long production cycle. Nursery Supplies' Premier Pressure-Formed Container uses a pressure-forming process instead, producing a container the company positions as tougher than its blow-molded lines while staying light and resilient.

This PF310 PS model (6-1/8in x 7in H, .65gal) is sized at the smaller end of the Trade #1 class.

Key Features & Benefits

Who Should Use This Premier Container

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this pot "pressure-formed" instead of blow-molded?

Pressure-forming is a different manufacturing process than blow-molding, and Nursery Supplies positions the resulting container as tougher than its blow-molded pot lines while staying light and resilient. The process is generally understood to produce more consistent wall thickness than blow-molding.

Is this pot heavier than a standard blow-molded pot?

No, it's built to stay light and resilient despite the added toughness from the pressure-forming process, rather than gaining significant weight. That balance of strength and weight is the main selling point of the pressure-forming process.

What's the difference between the PF310 PS and PF400CU models?

Both are Trade #1, 1-gallon-class sizes within the Premier Pressure-Formed line but carry slightly different dimensions and capacities; check the listed measurements to match your specific need. Neither model is strictly better; the choice depends on which dimensions fit your bench or tray layout.

When should I choose this over a Classic Custom Blow-Molded Pot?

Choose the Premier Pressure-Formed Container if sidewall toughness through a long production cycle matters more than the lower price point of the economy blow-molded lines. For a single production cycle where cost matters most, the standard Classic line may be the more economical choice.

What size is this container?

Both SKUs in this batch are Trade #1, 1-gallon-class sizes; check the listed diameter, height, and gallon capacity for the exact model. Both models fall within the same general 1-gallon capacity range.
