Properties
RHP-Compost originates after composting high-quality green residual flows and is,
among others, used as raw material in professional substrates. At application in
substrates as well as in open field cultures or horticulture, the compost contributes
to a more active soil life and a improved plant resistance. Especially in a substrate
with several renewable raw materials like Hortifibre®, RHP-Compost plays an
important role. RHP-Compost is available in several fractions and with that it can be
used for several applications
Quality
RHP is the most high-quality mark for substrates (potting soil) and substrate raw
materials. RHP not only guarantees the qualities of the end product, but also the raw
materials and the production process. This results in an end product of constant high
quality. This compost is entirely free of weeds and pathogens such as harmful
nematodes. By means of the respiration method, the stability of the compost is
measured. This guarantees the maturity of the compost. Compost with the RHP
certificate is the most high-quality compost available in the market.
