Production location
More about our cuttings production location, Xclusive Cuttings in Uganda
Analysis
At our production location we constantly analyse data. From various processes we determine use of materials and energy consumption. Each process is monitored and improvements are initiated where needed.
However, it's not only about figures, but it's about people too.
This is why we grow our motherplants in substrate:
* Substrate (pumice stone) can be disinfected by steaming
* Steaming has proven to be more effective compared to other ways of disinfection
* Much better for the environment
* More accurate dosing of purified water and nutrients

Energy consumption
XClusive Oeganda switched from traditional light bulbs, through Energy savers to LED light.
As a result energy consumption has been reduced drastically.
From 100 Watt to 34 Watt to 11 Watt.
The lamp effectivity per m2 went from 10 m2 to 16 m2
