20 years on and the flatbed trolley [shown below] made for Susie Tawney, Green Scheme founder, is still going strong.

Successful shopping trolley and shelving manufacturer Wanzl opened its UK HQ in Leamington Spa back in 1987; they were one of Green Scheme’s first clients. When Susie Tawney installed their office plant displays they made her a flat bed trolley to carry around watering cans plant arrangements.

Susie says “I have used this trolley constantly for twenty years and it has never let me down; it shows the high quality of Wanzl manufacturing. Luckily they are as pleased with my office plant displays as I am with their trolley.”
