Brisbane based company, Hydrox Technologies co-founders, Robert and Mark Trenchard, are reducing plastic waste by up to 30 percent with new solar shrink mulch film.

The film is solar powered and designed to shrink and tighten at low temperatures when exposed to the sun and is 50 percent stronger than conventional mulch film on the market.

The product was named in the top 10 new agricultural products for 2018 at the World AG Expo in California earlier this year for its potential to minimise costs, wastage and protect the environment. ​​​​​​
