In 1954, Vernon āV.L.ā Smithers revolutionized the floral industry with the creation of OASISĀ® Floral Foam ā a water-absorbing design media for florists. OASISĀ® is now the most recognized and trusted brand in the global floral industry.
Since that start, Smithers-Oasis has grown into a diverse global manufacturer and marketer of floral foam and design media, floral accessories, postharvest products, cellular growing media, temperature control packaging, medical impression foam, and custom foams for specialized applications. Our business divisions include OASISĀ® Floral Products, FloraLife Postharvest Products, OASISĀ® Grower Solutions, Temprecision International, Medical Impression Foam and Engineered Products.
Our business divisions and operating units all have the same goal ā to provide solutions-based products and services ā and our network of facilities around the world enables Smithers-Oasis to provide these at the local level, yet with a global perspective. For floral markets, that means products that reflect local cultural preferences and traditions. From horticultural and postharvest perspectives, we work with suppliers throughout the global supply chain to maximize crop production and protect products from harvest to the point of sale. For our specialty foam divisions, we drive innovation, accept accountability, and are positioned to partner with operations worldwide.
At Smithers-Oasis, we are committed to quality and innovation. We are proud to collaborate with our communities to create longstanding, supportive partnerships and customer satisfaction.
