Well-positioned. Our modern infrastructure enables us to advance your projects.
We work with you to develop mycorrhizal formulations that are perfectly tailored to your plants.

  • Microbiological laboratory

    Examination of soil and root samples, as well as for the examination of specific growth-promoting properties of microorganisms with a spectrophotometer (e.g. spectrophotometric measurements of DNA, RNA, enzyme activities, optical density of bacteria cultures, etc.)

  • Molecular-biological laboratory

    Molecular-biological laboratory for the identification of microorganisms (PCR, electrophoresis, gel documentation, incubation rotator)

  • Greenhouses

    (1,800 m² of foil tunnel) and 16.5 hectares of agricultural test areas and plant production

  • Production plants

    for the development and processing of mycorrhizal formulations with different substrates
