Sustainable Florist Sunshine Coast

Welcome to the Resonate Designs Florist Sunshine Coast blog, where we celebrate the innovative strides in sustainable floristry! At Resonate Design, we are Sooo proud to embrace Sideau® as our go-to 100% biodegradable floral foam alternative in 2025. This remarkable product, crafted by Agra Wool International Group from The Netherlands, is revolutionizing the way we approach floral design with its eco-friendly attributes.

**About Sideau®**

Sideau® is a groundbreaking creation made from Earthwool®, a natural material derived from basalt, a volcanic igneous rock. This innovative product is bound together using Ecose®, a natural binder that is free from harmful acetylates and formaldehydes. By replacing petrochemical raw materials with vegetable-based ones like sugar beet or cane sugar, Sideau® not only reduces environmental impact but also boasts a unique caramelized brown color due to its production process. Impressively, the creation of Earthwool® requires 70% less energy compared to traditional yellow rockwool, making it a truly sustainable choice.

Sideau® is designed to be user-friendly and environmentally conscious. Its soft yet dense texture ensures it holds water better than traditional floral foam, without emitting any odor or discoloration in water. Plus, it doesn’t crumble, making it a joy to work with for florists and flower arrangers alike.

**Our Story with Sideau®**

The name Sideau® is a tribute to the owner of Agra Wool, Sido, and cleverly incorporates the French phrase "Si d’Eau," highlighting its exceptional water-absorbing capabilities. This product is set to transform the world of environmentally conscious floristry, offering a sustainable alternative that aligns perfectly with our values at Resonate Designs Florist Sunshine Coast .

Join us in our journey towards a greener future as we proudly incorporate Sideau® into our floral creations, Sustainable wedding flowers, and overall sustainable floristry ensuring that beauty and sustainability go hand in hand. In the essence of giving back to the land the gave for us. Together, we can make a positive impact on our planet, one bouquet at a time!
