Case Study: HydraFiber

Petitti Family of Farms and Petitti Garden Centers – both businesses owned by our Chairman and CEO, Angelo Petitti, were recently featured in a case study on the trialing and eventual adoption of HydraFiber advanced substrates at our potting facilities in Lake County.

Petitti and Head Grower Hernie Rosado are both quoted in the study. The study was produced by HydraFiber’s parent company – Profile Products (Buffalo Grove, IL).

“HydraFiber has really been a game changer for us, not only by reducing the cost on the mix, but the availability of it,” Petitti told HydraFiber. “It doesn’t take a lot of space. From that standpoint it’s been a real winner, but also the way the product performs.”

“It’s great to have resources that are nearby and sustainable,” Rosado added. “And the cost of fuel and freight, on top of the great results we’re having, HydraFiber seems to be the future.”
