Re-Usable Substrate

Textile substrate for
hydroponic cultivation systems

Intro Pflanzsubstrat Our innovative textile substrate was developed as part of the international research project “CirCulTex” by six leading partners from Germany and India – funded by the IGSTC. It offers a sustainable, high-performance alternative to conventional disposable substrates in professional horticulture and urban agriculture.

Pflanzsubstrat Block 2

Our textile substrate is reusable, easy to clean, and supports a forward-thinking circular economy through its Cradle-to-Cradle design approach. It integrates seamlessly into existing hydroponic systems such as NFT (Nutrient Film Technique), DWC (Deep Water Culture), and Dutch Bucket systems. Ideal for both professional horticulture and urban farming, it performs exceptionally well in greenhouses and indoor farms, offering a sustainable solution without compromising on efficiency or productivity.

Pflanzsubstrat Block 3

Thanks to its unique structure, high water retention capacity, and optimal air-water balance, our textile substrate creates ideal conditions for seed germination and plant development. It is readily available in large quantities and can be paired with professional cleaning partners in Germany, making it the sustainable choice for modern cultivation systems.
