CULTIVATION MATS
In cooperation with Phormium, we offer a number of cultivation mats for modern mushroom cultivation that are a perfect fit due to their high wear resistance and dimensional stability.
Dennis Cox of Cox Champignons on the cultivation mats from Mertens: “They have a good price-quality ratio combined with high working comfort. Mertens always thinks one step ahead, which means you are completely unburdened as a customer.“

Tonny Verkin, Product Manager at Sterckx, on Mertens‘ compost and sliding mats: “Good compost and sliding mats are crucial for compost production.“ Belgian compost and casing soil supplier Sterckx knows this better than anyone else. In this respect, Sterckx has been working with Mertens for many years, and this to the company’s complete satisfaction.
