ICL has been one of the participants in the Viridalia 2024 Forum, sharing a stand with Syngenta, and showing the powerful catalog of solutions for the ornamental sector, highlighting its H2Gro wetting agent, its Osmocote 5 controlled release fertilizers and its Peters Professional and Universol soluble fertilizers.
This new edition of the Viridalia Forum was held on June 6 and 7 at the “Mercat de flor i planta ornamental de Catalunya”, located in Vilassar de Mar (Barcelona) and It has once again been the meeting point for all the companies in the powerful ornamental sector of the Catalan region of Maresme. An event that ICL has attended together with its partner Syngenta, offering the combination of solutions from both companies, which are characterized by developing products exclusively designed for ornamental plants.
The ICL and Syngenta stand has also provided support to the “Associació de Viveristes de Barcelona”, which has an unavoidable meeting point at this event, thus becoming in one of the most active points of the Viridalia 2024 Forum, where both ornamental plant producers and those responsible for distribution (wholesalers, garden centers, purchasing centers), sector prescribers (landscapers, gardeners, municipal technicians) and public interested in these topics.
This edition of Viridalia has focused on the serious drought problems that have affected a large part of Catalonia and on the technology that the sector can use. offer to alleviate this problem.
Here one of ICL,s star solutions has clearly stood out, its H2Gro wetting agent, which has demonstrated its enormous efficiency in helping water to distribute homogeneously in the substrate, remaining in the root environment of the plants to ensure constant humidity and durable that saves water and improves the condition of ornamental crops.
H2Gro is a next-generation wetting agent, developed especially for pots and containers, which combines a series of surfactants that achieves three advantages very important in ornamental crops, such as better humidification (reduces the surface tension of the water and distributes it over a greater surface, ensuring that the water penetrates quickly, even in hydrophobic or water-repellent areas); better distribution and drainage of water (favors the absorption of nutrients, expands the space for the development of roots, draining excess water easily, obtaining healthy roots and stronger plants); and a rewetting effect (optimizes moisture retention in the culture medium for a longer time and through numerous rewetting cycles).
Finally, it should be noted that ICL has also presented its leading solutions for the sector such as its Osmocote 5 controlled release fertilizers, its Peters Professional and Universol soluble fertilizers, or its Ready Germiplus granular herbicide.
