Is all coco the same?

In professional horticulture, coco seems to be becoming a more important player as substrate, every year.

Investments

Production capacity and storage facilities are crucial for Dutch Plantin. How else can we meet the expanding demand for our products? Therefore, we have invested in multiple warehouses, that guarantee our deliveries, even in rainy times like we have seen in the past few months. In India, we increased the number of presses. As a result, we were able to produce and deliver more growbags than ever before. Another effect of this investment is the fact that we are able to load more growbags on one pallet and lower the shipping costs per growbag. Furthermore we are planning on investing in a new track and trace system. This will also include a modernization of the pallet labels.

Unique coir pith no one can get close to

Dutch Plantin aims to centralize the supply of raw materials for coir products in India, to ensure the quality of our products and to meet our customers' standards in the best possible way. As an answer to the ever increasing demand for coir pith, we see organizations enter the market with coir products of fluctuating quality levels. Especially too young coir pith can cause problems in the growing process, because it cannot provide the necessary stability, which means that the product cannot be buffered optimally. This can cause a sudden shortage of calcium en high rates of potassium and boron. For all horticulture products, Dutch Plantin only uses special aged coir that provides the essential stability.

Ongoing expansion of Dutch Plantin

First of all, Dutch Plantin wishes you a happy and healthy 2012. This new year will bring new opportunities, just like 2011. We closed last year successfully, in the Netherlands as well as in India. Our new production site in Boekel (NL) is fully operational, which allows us to meet the increased demand for the various types of coir. In India, we will expand our influence in the production process of coir. Our goal is to monitor and control the quality of the production process from the beginning to the end. In the past, we worked with partners who met Dutch Plantin's standards. But the only way to optimize the quality of our products at all times, is by implementing all steps of the production in our own factories.

Coco-15, the new addition to the assortiment

Dutch Plantin started with the production of cocopeat over twenty years ago. The product quickly got the cultivators' attention. They were pleased that there was a new substrate available that as well as organic, was also stable, airy and able to hold enough water. Potting soil producers also saw the benefits. They started using the coco in large quantities to improve substrate mixes. With the introduction of coco chips, Dutch Plantin added a new dimension to improvements in potting soil and the development of substrates. Since then there is a new addition to the assortment: coco-15. The number 15 represents the average length of the fibres, which is 15 mm. With the development of this product new growth opportunities have emerged.
