The production of the casing soil of the future
Mushroom casing soil
Our casing soil is made of high-quality European deep dug peat, combined with frozen black and white peat. We use sugar beet lime to reach the right pH level. BVB Substrates can also produce different types of casing soil that are tailored to the needs of each specific growing type, including organic farming and different mushroom species. We make specific mixtures for growers that hand pick their mushrooms, and casing soils for growers that harvest their mushrooms mechanically.
Products
We offer casing soils with different moisture levels, ranging from 68-80%. These mixtures are tailored to fit our customer’s needs. We can also adjust the mixtures to increase their process ability.
Kekkilä-BVB has developed its own assessment method for casing soils. We also have our own spray tables to ensure a stable product and constant quality. We check the water uptake capacity, pH level and adhesive strength. In particular, in the cultivation of mushrooms, it’s tremendously important to constantly check the quality of the casing soil.
