PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Balanced Coco Peat for Professional Growing
RootBlend™ is a professional-grade coconut-based growing medium combining 80% cocopeat with 20% coco husk chips. The blend is designed to provide the moisture-holding characteristics of cocopeat together with the more open physical structure created by coco husk chips.
This balanced composition supports improved aeration and drainage while maintaining the practical moisture characteristics required in professional growing-media applications.
Supplied as an approximately 5 kg compressed block, RootBlend™ provides a space-efficient solution for nursery production, greenhouse cultivation, potting-mix preparation and other professional horticultural uses.
As part of the Nordic Coir 5 kg compressed block range, RootBlend™ can be supplied with washed or unwashed processing options, with low-EC and custom-grade options available according to buyer requirements and production feasibility.
Key Benefits
GROWING CHARACTER
A Balanced Relationship Between Cocopeat & Husk Chips
Moisture-Holding Cocopeat
The 80% cocopeat component provides the primary moisture-holding structure of the growing medium.
Added Root-Zone Air Space
The 20% coco husk chip component creates a more open substrate structure and contributes to improved aeration.
Improved Drainage
The blended physical structure supports improved water movement and drainage compared with a fine cocopeat-only medium.
APPLICATIONS
Coco Peat Growing Media for Nurseries & Greenhouse Cultivation
RootBlend™ is designed for professional growing-media applications where growers require a practical balance between moisture availability, aeration and drainage.
The 80:20 cocopeat and coco husk chip formulation provides a balanced structure suitable for professional growers seeking more aeration and drainage than fine cocopeat while maintaining a high proportion of cocopeat within the substrate.
