UV Foliage

Commercial Silk International’s UV (Ultraviolet) artificial foliage is created through a process by which ultraviolet blocking chemicals are impregnated into the materials during the manufacturing process. These chemicals are blended with the fabric as well as the plastic or PVC parts. Our outdoor foliages have been tested for colorfastness according to ASTM G155-05, and after one year of UV exposure equivalent to Miami, Florida, our product had NO COLOR LOSS visible by sight.

Base
Our standard base is a plastic grow pot. Depending on the application for the artificial tree or plant, we can build a custom steel base plate. If you would like a decorative container, we can assist you with selecting the appropriate container from one of our many manufacturers.
