HydraFiber Expands with New Products

The HydraFiber family of advanced substrate products has added two new products, HydraFiber Hybrid and HydraFiber EZ Blend, to provide a broader range of solutions for growers and soil blenders of any size.

HydraFiber Hybrid and HydraFiber EZ Blend are less compressed than the original HydraFiber, allowing blenders and growers who blend with a vertical bale buster, or growers who use bale busters and pad mix to reap the benefits of HydraFiber Advanced Substrate.

“The new HydraFiber Hybrid and HydraFiber EZ Blend offers many of the same operational advantages and the exact same quality, consistency, and unparalleled results as the original HydraFiber products, but can be incorporated into any setup you already have,” said Jennifer Neujahr, director of horticulture at Profile Products, which owns HydraFiber.

HydraFiber Hybrid is best for blenders and growers who have a bale buster or shaver in their line for mixing soils. 

HydraFiber EZ Blend is best for growers who pad mix their soils and are looking to work with HydraFiber’s high bulk density material.

As part of the product line expansion, the original HydraFiber Advanced Substrate has been rebranded as HydraFiber Ultra. It is for growers who amend or blend their own soil and have one or more transplant lines. Ultra offers five formulations based on crop types and timing.

“Although the original HydraFiber has a new name, the product itself is still the same powerful and proven product that has become a game changer for professional greenhouse growers across the globe,” Neujahr said. “The name change was born out of a need to simplify the branding as we expand and develop new, game-changing products for our customers.”

All of HydraFiber’s products are proven, environmentally friendly amendments and alternatives to perlite, peat, pine bark and coir, and provide customers with healthy, strong plants. The products are made from renewable and virgin loblolly pine wood and bark from reforested farms.

All three HydraFiber products are now available in compressed bales. In 2020, Hybrid and EZ Blend will also be available in 100-cubic-foot compressed towers.
