Beyond Floral Foam: How No Plastic Floral Foam! and Sideau® Are Transforming Floristry

Floral designers worldwide are making a conscious shift towards sustainability, and No Plastic Floral Foam! is leading the charge. If you're looking for a plastic-free alternative to traditional floral foam, Sideau® is an eco-friendly solution that aligns with our mission to eliminate harmful plastic waste from the floral industry.

Why No Plastic Floral Foam! Supports Sustainable Alternatives

Traditional floral foam is made from microplastic-producing materials that pollute our environment. At No Plastic Floral Foam!, we believe in providing florists with solutions that are biodegradable, sustainable, and plastic-free. Sideau® is one such alternative, allowing floral designers to create stunning arrangements without contributing to plastic waste.

What Makes Sideau® a Leading Floral Foam Alternative?

Sideau® is crafted from Earthwool®, a natural material derived from basalt, a volcanic rock, and bound with Ecose®, a formaldehyde-free natural binder. Unlike traditional floral foam, which is derived from petrochemical sources, Sideau® is fully biodegradable, offering a sustainable foundation for floral artistry.

Why No Plastic Floral Foam! Advocates for Sideau®

At No Plastic Floral Foam!, we are committed to educating florists, event designers, and hobbyists about the importance of sustainable alternatives. Sideau® is an excellent solution that aligns with our mission and values.

• 100% plastic-free: No microplastics, no harmful residues.
• Biodegradable & compostable: Breaks down naturally over time.
• Versatile & reusable: Can be cut and reshaped multiple times.
• Water-absorbent & firm: Provides strong support for floral stems.

How No Plastic Floral Foam! Is Driving Change

Florists and event designers have long relied on plastic-based floral foam, but No Plastic Floral Foam! is working to change that. By choosing Sideau®, you are not only enhancing your floral designs but also making a conscious effort to reduce environmental harm.

How to Use Sideau® for Plastic-Free Floristry
