The Italian company was founded in 1949. After decades of development, the company has developed from a s mall farm into an international company. In 1978, the company started production with in vitro technology and set up a s mall laboratory to propagate fruit rootstocks. In 2015, a new micropropagation laboratory was opened, increasing the production of rootstocks and berries.
The company can provide plant health certification including:
• CAC community agricultural coherence
• European Certification
• VE Virus Free - QVI Qualita Vivaistica Italia (Italian Nursery Quality)
In fact, as a result of in vitro production, the company's fruit plant rootstocks are certified as virus-free, thus limiting the spread of viral and bacterial contamination. Rootstocks produced in vitro follow A certification process for virus-free materials, with meristem or bud samples taken from the parent plants at Tebano-Faenza's Nursery Activity Centre (C A V) and other checks by regional plant health services, as well as ISO9001:2015 quality management certification.
From a market perspective, logistics is an important part of the producer-customer chain, involving the provision of necessary plant trade documents. The company uses carefully selected national and international transport companies and is therefore able to ensure on-time, reliable and efficient delivery within the scope.
The main products include: micro rootstock, grafted fruit tree plants (kiwi, berries, raspberries, blueberries) and nuts and other products and technologies.
The company is now established as a solid international producer, whose goal is to provide enthusiastic and professional service to customers in the vast and competitive nursery market.
