Indian Manufacturer · Professional Horticulture

Coir substrate, made to your specification.

Grow bags, cocopeat, blocks, chips and custom blends manufactured at our own facility in Tamil Nadu for professional growers, distributors and substrate companies.

  • Manufactured in Tamil Nadu
  • Blended to your specification
  • No minimum order

Substrate engineering

Substrate is a specification, not a commodity.

Water buffer and root-zone air move in opposite directions. Where you sit on that curve is the single most important decision about a grow bag — and it is yours to define, not ours to standardise.

Five reference blends

Measured across our standard range. These are reference points, not a catalogue — any ratio between them is produced to order.

Water holding capacity and air-filled porosity for five cocopeat to coco chip blend ratios.
Cocopeat : Chips Water holding Air-filled porosity
100 : 0 7.32 L/kg 5.2%
80 : 20 6.73 L/kg 10.2%
50 : 50 5.66 L/kg 21.0%
20 : 80 5.42 L/kg 25.06%
0 : 100 4.77 L/kg 30.8%

EC measured by the 1:1.5 volume extract method. If your specification uses saturated media extract, tell us — the two differ by roughly a factor of two.

What you can define

  • EC below 0.5 mS/cm Low-EC grade, washed with water alone
  • pH 5.5 – 6.8 Natural range, untreated
  • Water holding capacity 4.77 – 7.32 L/kg Across the published blend range
  • Air-filled porosity 5.2 – 30.8 % 100% cocopeat through to 100% chips
  • Particle grade Fine · Medium · Coarse Chips graded 6–12, 12–18, 18–25 mm
  • Peat : chip ratio Any ratio Blended to order, not to a catalogue
  • Buffering On request Calcium treatment; unbuffered as standard
  • Expanded volume To specification Compression set to the litreage you plan around

Manufacturing

We manufacture. We do not buy in and re-label.

Husk intake, fibre extraction, washing, drying, sieving, blending, compression and container loading all happen at our own facility in Peravurani, Thanjavur district.

Inside our factory

Quality & laboratory

Measured, not assumed.

A supplier who reliably ships EC 0.6 is worth more than one who averages 0.4 across a range of 0.2 to 1.1. Consistency is the product.

What we measure

  • Electrical conductivity
  • pH
  • Moisture content
  • Particle size distribution
  • Water holding capacity
  • Air-filled porosity
  • Bulk density
  • Expansion ratio
  • Foreign matter

Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium and chloride analysis is available on request, and is relevant mainly where buffered material is specified.

Private label & OEM

Your specification. Our production.

Most of what leaves our factory is not a catalogue item. Distributors and substrate brands come to us because they need a manufacturer who will run their specification under their name.

Private label & OEM programmes

  • Blend ratio Any proportion of pith to chips. If your crop needs 65:35, we make 65:35.
  • Particle grade Fine, medium or coarse pith; chips 6–25 mm; or a distribution you define.
  • Dimensions Block, brick, slab and bag sizes cut to your press specification.
  • Planting configuration Planting hole count, spacing and dimensions, pre-cut or left closed.
  • Drainage Hole number, diameter and position to match your gutter or bed layout.
  • EC level Washed to low EC, or supplied unwashed where you process in-house.
  • Buffering On request, or unbuffered for buyers who buffer to their own recipe.
  • Film Colour, gauge and UV specification.
  • Printing Your artwork, your brand, your batch labelling format.
  • Packing Carton, shrink wrap, bulk stack, pallet configuration.

International supply

Shipping coir substrate worldwide from Tamil Nadu.

We are a growing manufacturer rather than a thirty-year-old brand, and we are open about that. What we offer is direct access to the people running the line, published test data with every batch, and a willingness to make small custom runs that larger suppliers turn down.

If your market is not listed, ask anyway. A market not on this list simply means we have not developed it yet.

Start a specification

Tell us what you grow. We’ll build the substrate around it.

Send your crop, growing system, irrigation frequency and volume — and the EC method your specification uses. We will propose a specification rather than send a brochure.
