Unless it's the name

Maybe the "Evolutive" range of composters comes in, say, 20 litre, 50 litre, 200 litre, and 500 litre sizes.

agree Claire Cox : yes, this could work, in which case I suppose you could say "range of sizes" - probably worth checking with the client

neutral Claire Cox : I just can't imagine expandable composters. They certainly come in different sizes, but I've never seen add-ons. Don't you normally just get another one by the side?// Sorry, Francis, but aren't all product lines "expandable" by definition?

new

Does it not just mean "new" range, as in new and improved, i.e. evolved?

upgradeable

This is another meaning of 'évolutif' and would refer to each product being either i) subject to being improved or ii) improveable / adaptable with other products...
Peer comment(s):
neutral writeaway : doesn't that apply more to software and computers?
29 mins
Well, according to the dict, yes, but they do use the word here, and I just wanted to suggest that it could be each product that is "evolutif".
