What do our customers actually say?
Martin und Nicole Stertz
Stertz Pflanzen GbR, Endingen
“For us, it has been a concern for years to produce our perennials, ground covers and woody plants without peat. Together with our sales consultant M. Wennheller, we have achieved this step by step. The peat-free Gramoflor substrate we developed together contains a high proportion of LIGNOFIBRE® and Cocopeat, combined with organic bark humus, quality assured substrate compost and seasonally adapted long-term fertiliser supply.”
Bernd Freese
Freese Gartenbau, Großefehn
“As an ornamental plant company with a sustainable orientation, we have been using professional substrates from Gramoflor for more than 20 years. We are particularly satisfied with the close coordination and competent advice of our personal sales consultant from Gramoflor. In this way, we have already managed to achieve 50% peat reduction for almost our complete range of ornamental plants.”
Luca Aquistapace
Aquistapace Gartenbau
“We have been dealing with the issues of sustainability and CO2 for years. We have also been able to significantly improve our substrate balance and rely on regional substitutes from Gramoflor, such as LIGNOFIBRE® and substrate compost. We will continue to reduce the current peat content of 50%.
Christian Kordes
Kordes Jungpflanzen Handels GmbH, Bilsen
“The common guiding principle “Quality from the very beginning” connects us with Gramoflor. Both companies care not only about the best quality, but also about a sustainable culture. We have been relying on Cocopeat and LIGNOFIBRE® for many years and have had very positive experiences with these peat substitutes from Gramoflor in terms of cultivation.”
Atanas Sabev
Oranjerii Sabevi Ltd., Bulgaria
“Since we have been started with Gramoflor we have realised we can count on them. Quality of substrates as well as technical support is on the highest level. We would like to fortify the efforts of reducing CO2 emissions, therefore we already work with peat reduced mixtures with excellent results.“
Gianluigi Murgia, production manager
Floricoltura Francesco Carboni, Sassari (Italy)
“As well as focussing on quality in production, we always give great importance to sustainability. With Gramoflor we have found a solution for poinsettia substrate that enabled us to reduce the peat content by 50% and give excellent rooting and plant growth results.”
Damjan Pernovsek
Njiva (Slovenia)
‘’We are one of the first co-operators of GRAMOFLOR coming from abroad. Our philosophy is to serve our customers on the best way always on the high quality standards. We have been working with peat reduced substrates since a lot of years ago and our target is to continue on this way. Surely GRAMOFLOR is the optimum peat-reduced substrates supplier for us.’’
Kyriakos Vasiliou
Hydrocal Nurseries Ltd (Cyprus)
‘’I work with Gramoflor over 20 years. Consistency on words and action is always on high level. I have been promised high quality of peat reduced substrates and I have taken exactly this. Since the last 5 years we have introduced peat substitutes and gradually we are on R&D to increase further without losing quality. Surely we have done so and I am really feeling confident about the future as well.’’
