HANGING PLANT CONTAINER by BACSAC

BACSAC® it’s a new generation of flexible plant containers made for all home gardening occasions. Use the fabric pots and garden beds indoor or outdoor to grow beautiful plants and flowers in the most natural way ever invented.

Characteristics of the BACSAC®
The technical specificity of the BACSAC® is its permeability, that maintains the necessary balance among air, soil and water. The BACSAC® presents an innovative double layer : an external fabric which is UV, tear and frost resistant, and can withstand extreme temperatures ; and an inner lining of geotextile felt to protect the roots.

Why plants grow better in a BACSAC® then in a traditional container ?
The multilayer textile composite of the BACSAC® allows the roots and soil to breathe, bringing it closer to open ground gardening. The BACSAC® fabric regulates moisture as it lets the water slowly drain, while the air passes through. It avoids the recurring problem of overheating, as seen in traditional containers, that can harm both the roots and the microorganisms found in the soil. In a BACSAC®, the root system is thicker and spreads out. In a traditional container, the roots develop in circles along the side of the pot and form a root tangling, which will lead the roots to choke and will weaken the plant if faced with frost. On the contrary, in a BACSAC®, when a root touches the inner layer of felt and comes in contact with the air, it stops, allowing the plant to form new roots. These multiple roots will then spread out, drawing nutrients and minerals from the whole pot, for a healthier and stronger plant.

Ecological and sustainable
With a lifetime between 7 and 10 years, the BACSAC® is a sustainable product. It doesn’t break, doesn’t tear, and doesn’t lose its color. The geotextile fabric and the inner felt are 100% recyclable. They are designed to be in contact with soil and water, and to withstand outdoor conditions. The BACSAC® is a shell that protects the soil and lets you reconnect with nature.

Multipurpose
The BACSAC® can ajust to all types of cultivation, plants, trees, fruits or vegetables. It allows gardening anywhere, even in the city, and on any ground, even contaminated soil. It can suit both a very small balcony or a very large rooftop. With its many sizes and shapes, the BACSAC® brings an answer to all the problems and constraints you will face when gardening in the city. With customized solutions, BACSAC® can handle all projects, even the craziest !

BACSAC® was founded in 2008 thanks to the meeting of three visionary Parisians. A designer, passionate about nature, Godefroy de Virieu, and two garden design architects deeply involved in the return of nature to the city, Virgile Desurmont and Louis de Fleurieu.
Together, they searched for an alternative solution to avoid the constraints of creating a roof garden in town : difficulties of transport, excessive weight. How can we make mobile an installation which is often fixed due to its weight and rigidity ? The idea of planting in bags emerged from the desire to change habits and valorize what should be, the plant itself.
They invented an alternative solution to the traditional offerings, a new type of container, supple and light, made from geotextile. The primary concept of BACSAC®, a soil container that provides a space for growing plants. Aesthetic objects simple to use, BACSAC® is the fruit of their common vision and their complementary expertise.
