Pest control and
sterilization of
cultivation substrates
A naturally steam-sterilized substrate makes all the difference
For nurseries or those who cultivate mushrooms and truffles, it is essential to use natural substrates that have not been treated with chemicals.
At the same time, however, they must be free from contamination, which is why steam is used to pasteurize or sterilize the chosen material quickly and completely naturally. There are various solutions available, and the method of application may vary depending on the type of material, the quantity, and the processing required.
STERILIZATION IN PALLETS
The substrate is treated directly in the beds where the desired crop will be grown.
- Simultaneous processing of multiple pallets
- Processing of pallets of different sizes based on the power of the machine
- Average treatment duration: max. 30 minutes

STERILIZATION IN A CONTAINER
It is the most common and versatile method: the material is placed inside a special steel container equipped with a steam distribution system that allows for a uniform result.
- Quantitative processing variables from 0.5 to 8m³
- Customization of the body in terms of dimensions and features
- Possibility of mounting on a tipper trailer to facilitate unloading
- Average treatment duration max 30 minutes

STERILIZATION OF SEEDING PLATES
Some companies have decided to use steam to sterilize seed trays as well. These are simply stacked in a certain quantity and covered with a sheet that is securely fixed to the ground. Simple and effective.
