Patented Venso™ is the only technology that can coat and dry discrete layers of liquid concentrate encapsulating chemistry, trace elements, buffering and biologicals while maximising microbial shelf life. Our IIoT control system can manage dosage on the go and control the temperature of the seed and coating throughout drying to cut wastage.

TOWARDS A better future

Solving 100 year old seed coating problems

In 1932 R.H. Porter noted unavoidable seed and microbial damage from seed treatment machinery. Finally, VensoGrow has ticked all the boxes for survival and efficacy of bio-active seed coatings, applied with established chemical coatings in controlled, discrete layers.
‍
And the benefits of multiple layers go well beyond microbials - providing a toolset for endless innovation in chemical and microbial seed treatments.

Experience the future of seed applied technologies with BreezeCoat™ integrated coating and drying. Our innovative in-flight spray coating with controlled drying conditions, maximises seed, vigour and on-field treatment efficacy.

See how it works

Slash wastage

Seed coating wastage from overheating, bruising and clumping or clustering of seed coatings can be 15-20% and more. BreezeCoat™ solves all these problems to deliver more seeds with less time and cost.

Enhance quality and yield

Maximise quality control by layering coatings under uniform, controlled conditions that eliminate chemical phytotoxicity and are gentle on seeds and microbials. Increase germination, improve the viability and vigour of seeds and enhance global crop yields.

Cut pollution and cost

BreezeCoat™ removes the need for powders as binders for liquid seed enhancement formulations. Powders increase processing and freight costs and cause dusting which harms pollinators and creates pollution and OH&S issues.

Unlock new markets

Unlock unlimited innovation in your products by harnessing the unique benefits of BreezeCoat™ to realise previously impossible goals to solve the most difficult challenges.

the BreezeCoat™ advantage

The difference we can make

BreezeCoat™ protects seeds and natural seed coatings such as bacteria, enzymes and fungi from processing damage. Offering increased germination rates and plant vigour, our process supports improved multi-layer seed coatings that reduce waste, increase yields, protect crops and enhance the soil. We help farmers and producers make the most of their resources, while supporting multiple UN Sustainability goals.

Why BreezeCoat™ is a better seed coating solution

Zero dusting pollution

The first seed enhancement system that can deliver the required doses of liquid concentrate onto seed without needing added powders.

Protects

Plant health and the environment – the EU has passed anti-dusting regulations in 2023.

No harmful residues

Discrete, micro-dosed, microplastic and dust free coatings provide maximum plant stimulation without harmful residues.

Protects

Our environment, soil biome and land productivity.

Plant protection and stimulation

Only BreezeCoat™ controls the temperature of the seed and coating. Our Contactless Seed Enhancement System also cuts processing waste.

Protects

Valuable seeds and improves germination success rates and plant vigour.

Sustainable energy use

Rapid, efficient drying lowers energy costs and reduces seed processing times to seconds, not minutes.

Protects

The environment by reducing emissions, and your wallet by reduced energy costs.

Supporting UN Sustainability Goals

By solving 100-year-old seed coating problems we are supporting multiple UN SDGs.

GOAL
#2

Zero hunger
VensoGrow supports sustainable cropping systems to increase yields through the use of benign and effective seed coating systems promising increased germination and segregating and preserving essential microbes, regenerating soil productivity.

GOAL
#6

Clean water
VensoGrow provides market-leading, organic priming and micro-dosed delivery of plant beneficial materials directly onto seeds, minimising wastage and reducing harmful residues associated with aerial or drip-fed fertilisers, herbicides, and pesticides. Prevents runoff, helping to protect and preserve our waterways from pollution.

GOAL
#9

Innovation and infrastructure
Building resilient, energy-efficient, compact, and optionally mobile seed treatment infrastructure that can be accessed by small farming cooperatives and coating developers, through to industrial-scale processing. Fostering innovative treatments, farmer accessibility and economic development in rural and underserved communities.

GOAL
#13

Climate action
Our energy efficient technology reduces processing and freight emissions to reduce greenhouse gases.

GOAL
#11

Sustainable cities and communities
The VensoGrow technology platform cuts energy by more than 20% and optimises bio-active delivery onto seeds to increase carbon sequestration with soil regeneration and enhanced plant vigour for higher GHG adsorption.

GOAL
#15

Life on land
‍Through the BreezeCoat™ process, ensure micro-dosed actives, including viable biological populations that are segregated from harmful chemicals, can be delivered in coatings to improve the soil biome; creating arable land and reversing land degradation.

BreezeCoat™ benefits for seed coating

The re-imagining of seed coating was the culmination of the life’s work of our Technical Founder, Emeritus Professor Owen Potter AM, a globally recognised fluidisation expert. Benefits include:

Gentle on seeds and microbials

Other technologies produce wastage from clustering, hotspots and prolonged heat exposure. VBreezeCoat™ optimal seed separation, precise temperature with transient heat exposure and 100x more even drying maximises seed vigour and viability and treatment efficacy on field.

A platform for innovation

Compact, efficient, multi-stage design that scales to your needs, processing multiple layers in seconds. Flexibly accommodates multiple different coating types on one seed for resilience in response to variable climate and pests.

Slash dust pollution

BreezeCoat™ delivers more concentrated liquid actives onto seeds than any other technology, with no need for powder binders. Slash airborne pollution and protect pollinators with our superior seed enhancement system.

Problems of conventional seed coating systems

Roto Pan Coaters

Like a mixing bowl, batch, not continuous flow
Slower and more labour intensive
Typically 1-2 layers maximum
Centrifugal force can reduce seed vigour and viability
Toxic chemicals can damage seeds
Agglomeration of coated seeds
Additional machinery for drying may be needed

Rotary Drum Dryers

Prolonged drying time, uneven exposure
Mechanical & heat stress to seeds & coatings
Excess heat can denature biologicals
Excessive energy “lifting” seeds
Bruising reduces germination & vigour
Agglomeration of coated seeds
Excessive wastage as a result
