Cocopeat is made from cocnout and a 100% organic material. It is frequently used in hydroponics and seed sowing mixes. The advantages of cocopeat are that it is lightweight, relatively inert and comes from a sustainable source. The quality of cocopeat is very important if used for plant growth. Due to poor processing cocopeat can contain salt water residues that will affect the plant growth in a negative way.
Sapher Lin has a very high standard of processing and guaranties the highest possible quality of cocopeat possible.
