Make Durstons your trusted, go-to compost partner this season

 

Durstons is more than just a supplier of growing media – we are a trusted family-run business with a proud heritage, committed to supporting retailers with high-quality, performance-driven products.

 

The company's deep understanding of the industry, combined with a passion for excellence, enables it to deliver reliable stock levels and fast response times, ensuring you always have the products your customers need when they need them. If you haven’t yet placed your compost order or are looking for a supplier that can deliver much-needed stock in just five days, now is the perfect time to talk to Durstons and see how we can support your business.

 

Peat-free, done right

The shift to peat-free compost has been one of the biggest challenges in recent years, and at Durstons, we took our time to get it right. We didn’t rush a product to market just to tick a box - instead, we made a significant investment in research and development to create a peat-free blend that genuinely performs. Independent trials have proven its effectiveness, showing that Durstons’ new peat-free compost provides up to 70% more plant growth compared to professional peat mixes and other products on the market.

 

Unlike many “me-too” alternatives that have left gardeners frustrated, Durstons peat-free compost delivers real growing success. Even when in the hands of inexperienced peat-free gardeners, it provides consistent results, giving consumers the confidence to continue their gardening journey.

 

Retailers can trust that by offering Durstons, they are providing a product that will build trust in peat-free growing, rather than erode it. We are also committed to supporting the wider industry through educational initiatives and the peat-free communication programme, helping to inform and inspire consumers to make sustainable choices with confidence.

 

More than just compost

Beyond our industry-leading peat-free range, our dedication to exceptional customer service means we work closely with our retail partners, providing the support, reliability, and expertise they need to succeed.

 

At Durstons, partnerships matter, quality matters, and heritage matters. Let’s grow together. Get in touch today and discover how Durstons can help your business thrive.
