Overview Application/Industries Served
SAF™ superabsorbent fibres can be integrated into a wide range of nonwoven fabrics and woven constructs that can be used as both temporary and long-term water management solutions in many different horticultural and landscaping applications. Such fabrics are designed to achieve storage and delivery of water and nutrients to root systems, while significantly reducing evaporative loss and water seepage. They can be used in a wide range of applications from hanging basket liners (Basket Boosters™) and flower transportation, to large commercial growing scale and landcsaping projects.
SAF™ fibres can also be added directly to the soil media to enhance water containment.
