WOOD FIBRE

SINCE THE 1980S

Because we have been mixing in wood material since the 1980s, this long-standing experience is of particular benefit to us today. Not only with regard to nutrient stabilisation, but also fractionation. We were one of the very first soil manufacturers to commission our own wood fibre plant and, due to its growing importance, we already produce natural wood fibre on two plants.

After the wood chips, which are produced in sawmills in the immediate vicinity of our earthworks, are defibrated, the wood fibres pass through a special screening plant in which they are separated in a very defined way according to fibre length. This means that we have a wide range of wood fibres in different grain sizes at our disposal. We can mix these in very specifically depending on the application area of the substrate. In this way, we are not limited to a specific substrate type or structure when using wood fibre.
