A formulation that incorporates light materials that balance the water and oxygen uptake around the micro-environment of the seed. There are specialized formulas unique to different crop species. Species include lettuce, endive, escarole, carrot, onion, brassica, leek and tomato.

For growers that use smaller sizes (11.5, 112 x 218, and 109 x 190.) Roto-technology allows us to produce a rounder, more uniform superior product using light, and heavy materials depending upon the need of the customer.

SETECO’s encrustment product. This process uses binders that do not restrict water and oxygen uptake which promotes faster more uniform germination. MicroTek can be used to achieve a specified seed count.

This is the SETECO film coating. We also use ColorTek to seal fungicide treatments and enhance flowability in the pneumatic planters.

This is SETECO’s raw seed priming for lettuce and endive/escarole.  It breaks photo dormancy and achieves uniform emergence in adverse climactic conditions.
