Plant growing

Our first PROFI formula recipes date back to 1996 when we created special types of substrates for professional growers. The range gradually expanded by adding various types of professional fertilizers, grass seed mixes, planters and containers, pesticides, mulching bark, various decorative materials, etc. We now offer a comprehensive range of products for different groups of professional growers – vegetable producers, flower growers, ornamental and forest nurseries, etc. We are the only supplier with such a comprehensive product range in the Czech Republic.
