Licensing

Product Licensing - PAS 100

The PAS 100 specification covers the entire process by which compost is produced: from raw materials and production methods, through to quality control and lab testing. It means that our composts are certified by The Composting Association, and are quality assured, safe and reliable.

The process is reassuringly rigorous and our compost production method and end product are inspected annually. It’s well worth it and gives confidence to our end users.

The benefits of using our PAS 100 certified compost are:

• Improving the soil structure and creating a better root environment for plants.
• Increasing moisture infiltration and moisture holding capacity in lighter soils.
• Providing a variety of nutrients (some in slow release forms) often reducing the need for fertilisers.
• Providing organic matter to improve soil structure.
• Supplying beneficial bacteria which assist nutrient uptake and help suppress soil borne diseases.
• Improving plant health, from germination, through growth and to maturity.
• Improving resistance to soil compaction and erosion.
• Improving the control of weeds when coarse particle grades are used as a mulch.
