Fresh mix thanks to Saltrio
Our salad trio consists of a single root ball with three different types of lettuce. They create an attractive “bouquet” with a varied mix of colors and leaf shapes. This unique combination makes Salatrio an attractive “living lettuce” for the consumer.
Knox™
Fresh & appetizing for longer
Our Knox™ varieties have been specially developed to discolor less quickly due to oxidation at the cut points. Compared to conventional lettuce varieties, oxidation in our Knox™ varieties only becomes visible around two days later.
