수 년간, 피트모스를 대체하기 위한 노력을 기울이고 있으며 여전히 진행중입니다. 물론 피트모스는 그 자체로도 원예전문배지재로로서 최선이라 여겨지고는 있지만 자연상태에서의 느린 복원과 재활용여부에 따라 피트모스 대체제에 대한 넒고 광범위한 연구가 이어지고 있습니다.
Ecofibrex – 우드파이버
Research in recent years indicates that the parameters of peat and specially harvested wood fibers are similar. Therefore, are wood fibers, which are a quickly renewable resource, an alternative to peat?
In practice, it has been found that wood fibers, as a substrate component, are excellent for nursery and other container and soil cultivation. However, on their own, they should not form a substrate or be its base. Wood fibers added in the right proportions improve the parameters of the substrate, especially beneficial for loosening the structure and drainage.
Within the product list of Lasland Ltd, Ecofibrex® is included in selected KRONEN® substrates as well as the NATURA® line of potting soils, fulfilling the requirements for environmentally friendly substrates.
Ecofibrex® wood fibres for horticultural purposes are produced at Lasland Ltd. with great care and the use of extensive product knowledge. The product is created from natural, clean coniferous wood, that is derived after mechanical processing, following a complex thermal-mechanical process. The wood fibre originates from renewable, ecological resources, for the growth of which no plant protection products are used.
Within the product list of Lasland Ltd, Ecofibrex® is included in selected KRONEN® substrates as well as the NATURA® line of potting soils, fulfilling the requirements for environmentally friendly substrates.
