Hydroponics Products

NATURAL
The substrate Natural is the reference product of our range. A standard with unique environmental properties and made up of materials directly produced in defibering workshops. The raw materials are then sifted to remove fine particles and ensure better root aeration. This is the favoured substrate in tropical and temperate climate.

Properties

Substrate Natural has excellent water retention and maintains good drainage and aeration. This is a more vegetative substrate than the other substrates of the range, but it provides a more generative action in winter since it offers suitable aeration.

Finished product

CocoteQ manufacturing process of the substrate Natural results in a substrate which is fine on the surface and thus offers homogeneous humidity. It has a longitudinal groove beneath, which improves the aeration and drainage capacity of the moistest part of the substrate. To enable proper installation and save on labour costs, we can deliver pre-drilling substrates.

DUO
The substrate Duo is an innovative product and the result of biotechnology research. The substrate Duo is completely recyclable and renewable as it is also the case for all CocoteQ products. It results from the mixture of 50% of sifted materials produced in defibering workshops (Natural type) and 50% of coco chips derived from complete crushing process of the coconut mesocarp.

Properties

The substrate Duo maintains a well-balanced air/water ratio. It can be either generative or vegetative depending on the climate and operations.

Finished product

CocoteQ manufacturing process of the substrate Duo results in a substrate with a gradual grain texture – finer on the surface and rougher inside. It has a longitudinal groove beneath, which improves the aeration and drainage capacity of the moistest part of the substrate. To enable proper installation and save on labour costs, we can deliver pre-drilling substrates.

AIR
The substrate Air is a new generation product. This is a 100% natural, renewable and recyclable product. It is made up of 20% of sifted materials produced in defibering workshops (Natural type) and 80% of coco chips derived from complete crushing process of the coconut mesocarp. This is the perfect substrate for cultures in Continental Europe and regions with temperate oceanic climate.

Properties

The substrate Air has high aeration and drainage capacities which require specific irrigation techniques. This is a more generative substrate and it is used mainly in temperate oceanic climate regions and for cultures not tolerating high humidity levels.

Finished product

With our manufacturing process, the substrate Air results in a substrate with a gradual grain texture – finer on the surface and rougher beneath. To enable proper installation and save on labour costs, we can deliver pre-drilling substrates.
