Our Mission

We are your partners in growth.

Who we are

Since 1990, we have helped nurseries improve productivity and grow healthier plants.

EARLY DAYS
Established in 1990, Transplant Systems has achieved worldwide recognition for its know-how in nursery automation, planting systems and designing durable nursery trays.


A NEW CHAPTER

In 2025, Transplant Systems Australia became part of PrimeHort Distributors. While PrimeHort has taken over the reins, the trusted Transplant Systems name remains, along with the nursery trays and expertise growers rely on.

For leading-edge nursery automation, customers can now benefit from our exclusive partnership with machinery leaders, Da Ros.

PrimeHort is a family-owned horticultural supplier based in New Zealand. Leading the field in nursery and landscape solutions since 2002, their mission is simple: build on the strong foundation in place with reliable products, expert advice and unwavering support.

 

LET’S GROW

With this transition complete, together we are ready to help our customers grow.
