Substrate for real herpers
HERP EASY
After testing products from many manufacturers of coco substrates around the world for more than 2,5 years we’re finally able to make a product for real herpers that meet all our strickt demands and qualifications. Our Factory is owned by dutch and under Dutch management,so constant quality ensured. Their Quality Department monitors our products to ensure that they meet the highest quality standards. They have access to a laboratory at all of their production facilities. The physical and chemical characteristics of the raw materials are checked in their own and in external laboratories throughout the production chain, from extraction to delivery. The final products undergo several checks before delivery, which enables them to guarantee the high quality of our products. Our quality management system is certified according to the ISO 9001:2015 standards. We use RHP-approved raw materials for our products. RHP certification guarantees that the substrate meets the right quality requirements for aspects such as water and air content, pH and EC. The most difficult part was to get the product dust free, but after investing alot of money in , and experimenting with the production proces we managed to reduce the dust to nearly zero.Our product is washed 3 times,sift 4 times and the material is air blown after sifting to reduce even the smallest dust parts. After testing our product in a specialised lab against other products in the market we are confident enough we have the best product at the best price available in the European market.Sustainable
We take a serious approach to sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR).That is why we use organic, environmentally friendly materials. Coco is a perfect example of such a material. A palm tree produces about 100 coconuts a year, which means that we can describe it as a renewable resource. Every component of the coconut is used. The inner nut is processed for oil and charcoal, while the coconut husk is processed in the fibre industry. What remains once the fibres have been removed from the husk is known as coir. Coco can be recycled and turned into a raw material for soil improvement. We limit CO2 emissions by transporting all of our coco products dry and in compressed form.
As well as taking care with the environment, our manufactorer contribute to the society in which they operate. They invest substantially in local projects in the countries where they produce. They also offer employees in production countries above-average wages and training facilities. They also take an active approach to helping communities by building schools, wells and homes for the underprivileged.
They have been a member of the United Nations Global Compact initiative since 2008 and carry out social projects in fields such as healthcare, education and housing. They have been awarded the ISO 14001 (for the environment) and SA8000 certificates. SA8000 is one of the world's leading social certification standards for good working conditions.
