FiberCell Paper: A Sustainable Solution for Efficient Plant Propagation
Published: 24/09 2025
FiberCell paper, developed by BCC, offers an innovative and sustainable solution for plant propagation, providing a range of biodegradable papers tailored to various crop needs. These papers are designed to degrade naturally over time, ensuring minimal environmental impact and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.
Key Advantages of FiberCell Paper in Propagation:
- Biodegradability: Made from biobased materials like starch, FiberCell papers decompose based on soil and climate conditions. It converts into water, CO₂, and biomass. However, the process depends on both biological and abiotic factors.
- Enhanced Root Development: The design of FiberCell papers facilitates air-pruning, which encourages healthier root systems by preventing root circling. This leads to robust plant growth and reduces the risk of root deformation.
- Reduced Transplant Shock: Seedlings can be transplanted directly in their paper pots, minimizing root disturbance and reducing transplant shock. This seamless transition promotes faster establishment and growth in new environments.
- Versatility: With a variety of paper options, FiberCell caters for different crops and propagation periods. For instance, the Biobased Medium Paper is suitable for crops with degradation times of up to 14 months, while the Biobased Fast Paper is ideal for shorter cycles of 6-8 weeks.
- Environmental Certifications: FiberCell papers hold certifications such as FSC and OK Biobased, reflecting their commitment to sustainable and eco-friendly practices.
Wide cultivation segment
Our FiberCell papers are suitable for cultivation of a broad range of crops, including:
- Herbs and leafy greens
- Fruits, nuts, and berries
- Forestry and indigenous trees
- Flowers and ornamentals
- Grapevines and citrus plants
Product Highlights:
- FiberCell Biobased Medium Paper: Made from starch-based materials, this biodegradable paper is designed for a wide range of crops, offering a production time of up to 14 months depending on soil and climate conditions.
- FiberCell Biobased Fast Paper: Also, starch-based and biodegradable, this paper suits crops with shorter propagation periods, with a degradation time of approximately 6-8 weeks.
- FiberCell Prime Fast: The FiberCell Prime Fast paper is ideal for growing forest seedlings in sub-tropical regions, supporting fast-growing species like acacia and eucalyptus. This paper is also perfect for cultivating fast-growing crops such as lettuce and herbs. It degrades within 2–4 months in this environment.
- FiberCell Prime Medium: The Prime Medium Paper is ideal for crops requiring a longer propagation period. The Prime papers are used by numerous forest nurseries around the world but are also suitable for other types of crops in other areas.
Incorporating FiberCell paper into propagation practices not only supports sustainable agriculture but also enhances plant health and growth efficiency, making it a valuable choice for modern cultivators.
