Natural solutions that deliver sales
GTN Xtra Promotion

 

Gardeners are asking for natural, sustainable products – and LAVA-LITE® is helping retailers meet that demand while driving strong returns.

 

Made from sustainably sourced volcanic stone, the range provides powerful organic, non-toxic solutions for soil improvement, pest control, aeration and moisture management. Easy to use, long-lasting, and low mess, every SKU combines consumer appeal with commercial value.

 

Why retailers love it:

  • Fast turnover – Hero lines like NO GNATS and NO SLUGS fly off shelves.
  • Strong margins – Premium look and feel, with trade-friendly pricing.
  • Shelf-ready branding – Clean design, clear messaging, and consumer education built into the pack.
  • Flexible displays – Works equally well on seasonal endcaps or integrated into eco-themed ranges.

The Range
From Soil Restore+ for better drainage and structure, to indoor pest control Lava-Lite No Gnats, the collection spans houseplants, borders, orchids, cacti, and composting. This breadth gives stockists multiple entry points for every type of customer.

 

Ethical & On-Trend
As a UK-owned, independently run business, LAVA-LITE is trusted by leading garden centres nationwide. Retailers can count on fast delivery, excellent service, and products that are proven to sell.
