Launched exclusively at Glee 2022, and scooping one of the highly coveted Glee New Product awards, Sipcam Home & Garden is proud to further introduce two exciting new additions to the leading ecofective® portfolio designed to create happy plants and a happy planet. Introducing all new Organic Superfood and Peat-Free Compost Booster.
Award-winning Organic Superfood
Joining the ever-popular ecofective® portfolio of pioneering bio-technology garden care products is the first of Sipcam’s newest innovations. All-new Organic Superfood was selected by a panel of leading industry figures as the winner of the Glee New Product ‘Growing Materials’ award at this year’s edition of the leading garden retail exhibition. Taking inspiration from the nutritional superfood market and the power of superfoods for positively impacting our wellbeing, ecofective® Organic Superfood is designed to make plants thrive by providing a complete package of essential nutrients.
With an NPK of 5-4-3, pelleted Organic Superfood is packed full of natural biostimulants, magnesium and organic matter. Each 800g box will help up to 40 plants, seedlings and potted plants thrive no matter the soil type or external conditions with six actions designed to give plants whatever they need to thrive: 1) Yields are doubled and benefit from bigger, brighter blooms 2) Strengthens against disease attack 3) Supports plants during stressful conditions including heat, drought and over watering 4) Controlled release of nutrients for long lasting support 5) Improved water retention 6) Improved root development
Peat-Free Compost Booster
Also boosting the ecofective® portfolio ahead of the 2023 season and further strengthening Sipcam’s commitment to helping gardeners make better choices for their plants and for the planet, is Peat-Free Compost Booster. Created to partner with peat-free compost suppliers, drive up the average basket spend and increase consumer engagement and confidence with peat-free growing media, this carefully balanced compost booster is full of all the essential nutrients plants need to grow within peat-free compost. It includes an NPK of 5-4-3 to enable greater growth and strong plants. Available in powder form, gardeners can easily mix it into the compost.
Like the all-new Organic Superfood, Peat-Free Compost Booster will offer six multi-actions for greener, healthier plants which will be labelled more clearly on all packagingplants which will be labelled more clearly on all packaging to help consumers at the point of sale.
