Sproutwell’s Grange series is Australia’s first proven commercial-grade<br />

greenhouse and is widely used <strong>in</strong> both residential and commercial<br />

agricultural <strong>in</strong>dustries. Over the past four years, Sproutwell has provided<br />

hundreds of Granges across Australia and New Zealand and it’s without a<br />

doubt the most sought-after greenhouse on the market today due to its<br />

supreme strength and durability. The Easy Alum<strong>in</strong>ium Connectors and Smart<br />

Slide-<strong>in</strong> Assembly System have been designed to reduce the assembly<br />

time by up to 70 per cent compared to other greenhouse structures<br />

(uses 300-plus fewer nuts and<br />

bolts than the traditional-style<br />

greenhouse). Complete with<br />

10mm polycarbonate panels,<br />

it’s hands-down one of the<br />

strongest greenhouses available.<br />

The entire range is perfect for<br />

those want<strong>in</strong>g to erect a larger<br />

greenhouse <strong>in</strong> an open area, as<br />

the structure is unbelievably<br />
