We look for by-products from different industries as a solution to reduce the excessive use of natural resources in the production of plant care products.

Seaweed

Scientific studies highlight the high potential of algae for the production of biofertilizers and biostimulants. In collaboration with GreenCoLab, we are developing a nutrient solution for house plants using algal biomass from the algae industry in Portugal. Discover the SEAWEED2PLANT project.

Insects

In partnership with Entogreen, we are developing a specific compost for house plants, using insects as a motor to transform by-products from the agro-food industry into nutritional sources for plants.

Cork

In collaboration with the School of Agriculture of the University of Lisbon, we are studying the potential for replacing potting mix constituents for house plants with by-products from Portuguese bioindustries such as cork, hemp, and pumice.
