PRODUCT OVERVIEW

70/30 Coco Peat for Balanced Air & Water Management

AirBlend™ is a professional-grade growing medium combining 70% cocopeat with 30% coco husk chips to create a balanced medium-coarse structure with improved aeration, drainage and moisture retention.

The addition of carefully processed coco husk chips creates more air space within the root zone while the cocopeat component provides reliable moisture-holding capacity. This balanced air–water relationship supports healthy root development and helps maintain stable growing conditions throughout the crop cycle.

Supplied as a compact 5 kg compressed block, AirBlend™ is designed for professional nurseries, greenhouse growers and commercial horticultural operations looking for a versatile coconut-based substrate with greater aeration than standard fine cocopeat.

AIR–WATER BALANCE

A More Open Root-Zone Structure

AirBlend™ combines the moisture-holding properties of cocopeat with the larger pore spaces created by coco husk chips, helping growers maintain a more balanced relationship between water availability and root-zone aeration.

Moisture Retention

Cocopeat helps maintain moisture around the root zone.

Enhanced Aeration

Coco husk chips create greater air space within the substrate.

Improved Drainage

The medium-coarse structure supports more efficient water movement.

APPLICATIONS

Coco Peat Growing Media for Greenhouses, Nurseries & Professional Cultivation

AirBlend™ is particularly suited to crops and growing systems that require a balance between moisture availability and root-zone aeration.

Commercial greenhouse cultivation
Professional nursery production
Vegetable production
Ornamental plants
Container-grown crops
Pot and planter production
Seedling and young-plant production
Root development and propagation
Potting media preparation
Professional substrate blending
Soil and growing-medium improvement

The medium-coarse structure makes AirBlend™ especially useful where growers require better drainage and aeration than fine cocopeat while retaining sufficient moisture around the roots.

AirBlend™ can be used as a complete coconut-based growing medium or incorporated into customised professional substrate formulations.
