about us: who we are
SOPHYTO totally supports the agricultural industry as opposed to the petrochemical industry – quite evident from their exceptional high levels of certified organic ingredients which average 95%+. But it didn’t just end there; their five partnering production sites, four in the UK and one in Italy, under went exhaustive individual assessment and licensing for organic handling, packaging, manufacturing and waste management, based upon generating ecological, social and economic practices.
SOPHYTO’s eco-efficient systems are implemented by simply utilizing fewer resources that create less waste and pollution. For example; waste generated at their UK facilities consists mainly of biodegradable materials, therefore it can be taken to their recycling facility where composting takes place within enclosed ‘clamps’ and oxygen levels and temperature can be monitored and managed to ensure wastes are sanitized and odors contained. All material is composted to meet BSI PAS 100 specification. These standards are made for; raw materials, production techniques and quality control and ensure reliable certified and quality assured composts. The end result... a compost product which is used as a soil improver, topdressing, or is blended with soils for use in agricultural, or restoration projects. |
