Benefits of Growcoir® include:

  • lightweight
  • can be compressed into a variety of shapes
  • decomposes slowly due to its high lignin content and large particle size so can be reused for several crop cycles
  • uniform and consistent
  • excellent porosity and water holding capacity that can be adapted to your crop
  • natural and renewable resource easily disposed of without any environmental concerns

Worried about salt levels?

High salt levels can be an issue with coconut fibre-based substrates but this does not apply to Growcoir®. The coir used in Growcoir® products has been carefully washed and dried multiple times to remove excess sodium before blending, resulting in an extremely safe and consistent high-quality product.
