What we do

Rhizocore Technologies produces locally-adapted mycorrhizal fungi to enhance tree planting success. By working with native fungi, we offer a sustainable solution to accelerate woodland regeneration, improve forest productivity, and increase natural capital benefits.

 

Growth Rates
By applying the right fungal strains, saplings experience increased growth rates of up to 50 %.

Carbon Storage
Utilising our Rhizopellet increases tree and soil carbon capture by 20%, strengthening forest carbon sinks.

Tree Resilience
Trees develop stronger resistance to droughts and root diseases, potentially saving up to £400 per hectare in management costs.

Company's story

Our Specialty
Grow healthy forests that survive the test of time
Our locally-adapted mycorrhizal fungi pellets enhance tree planting success, and fit effortlessly into your planting process, ensuring that new saplings flourish, build resilience to drought, and overcome the mortality rates so often seen across the forestry industry.

Boost Survival Rates
Our Rhizopellet increases newly planted tree survival by 25%, reducing early mortality through enhanced soil connectivity.

Drought Resilience
Rhizopellets enhance drought tolerance, potentially saving up to £1600 per hectare. This is based on climate models for Scottish plantations from 2020 to 2080 (Petr et al., 2015).

BioFertiliser
With a single application, Rhizopellets can reduce fertilizer costs by £500 per hectare, effectively replacing chemical fertilizers and complying with regulatory restrictions.
Our story
We're growing fungal networks to help reforest our planet
A range of 2 billion to 5 billion trees are planted per annum with most forecasts pointing to this number rising further. Recent clear felling or centuries of agricultural management deprived the soil of valuable mycorrhizal networks leaving the newly planted trees to struggle in an unforgiving environment. We are here to change that.

At Rhizocore, we believe the future of our planet lies in the Earth. Using the wonderful, transformative power of the underground fungal kingdom, we can restore its ecosystems for years to come.

The unique, natural technology woven in the networks of mycorrhizal fungi has the potential to revolutionise reforestation across the globe, by maximising tree growth, preventing sapling mortality, reducing beat-up costs, accelerating soil biodiversity and boosting carbon capture potential.

We envision a world in which people regenerate what has been lost. Because a world with more trees, is a world better for us all.
