Smithers-Oasis UK’s biobased floral foams bring sustainability to arrangements

September 28, 2026 |

In the United Kingdom, Smithers-Oasis UK has expanded its plant-based OASIS® Renewal® Floral Foam range to different shapes, expanding what is possible for sustainable floral arrangements. Made from 80% plant-based resources, the new floral foams are practical for everything from sympathy flowers to event work. The foam has similar support and water retention characteristics as petroleum-based floral foams. 

“Sustainability is an important consideration for many florists, and we continue to support their evolving needs,” Paul Southwick, Managing Director at Smithers-Oasis UK, told Perishable News.  “Our new range of OASIS® Renewal® Floral Foam Shapes reflects our ongoing investment in sustainable innovation, offering practical solutions that support both creative freedom and environmental responsibility.”
