Sustainable Solutions for the Agriculture Industry
The Growing Media sector of Hayleys Fibre offers a range of products to cater to the growing demands of the modern agriculture industry. We provide sustainable solutions across a wide range of diverse industries – from vegetables and fruits, to floriculture and ornamentals, and commercial nurseries, hydroponics, greenhouses and farms.
It is a 100% biodegradable alternative made using coconut husks;, coir pith, chopped fibre and coconut husk chips, offering a cost-effective solution for both indoor and outdoor farming methods. Growing media blends provide water, air and nutrients to support plant growth and create an environment for water absorption and retention.
Other beneficial features include:
- Eliminating the constraints of open-field farming, including protection from unpredictable weather conditions
- Building up resilience to threats of soil-borne diseases that thrive on open fields due to the methods used
- Benefitting from higher yields, despite less fertiliser and water usage, in comparison to crops grown at ground level
- Enabling cultivation in areas that are usually not considered as viable due to weather and economical constraints
We supply growing media to key markets including South America, Turkey, Uzbekistan and Russia, through our 10 production factories based in Sri Lanka, and an additional two in India and Indonesia. We are also a preferred supplier for major commercial farming countries such as the USA, South Korea and China.
