EcoCover is
one of the best organic business opportunities in
Canada, ever.
Imagine owning your own small
manufacturing business making an organically
certified product. The product is patented in
Canada, the United States and 19 other countries.
-
 EcoCover has no direct
competitors, there is nothing else like it on the
market.
- This organic product is
patented in 21 countries.
- The bulk of the material
in EcoCover is waste paper that would otherwise go
to landfill
- EcoCover replaces plastic
film and sheeting used for agricultural, landscaping
and garden mulch.
- EcoCover is 100%
biodegradable.
- EcoCover stops weed
growth, conserves water, enriches the soil, reduces
or eliminates the need for chemical herbicides,
reduces the need for chemical fertilizers.
- This product is
environmentally positive.
-
Manufacturing EcoCover creates zero waste.
- New product development is
ongoing, such as our new
EcoPin™ biodegradable pin.
Read a recent news release about
EcoPin™ as a
landscape
fabric pin alternative.
Read about the
research that
shows 30 to 40 percent yield increases over plastic
mulch.

progressive city government in New Zealand has to say

EcoCover product performance from their
experience.
What makes EcoCover such an
interesting organic business opportunity in Canada, or
an venture
capital investment?
EcoCover is an environmentally sustainable investment
that reuses waste, enhances plant growth and improves
the soil. There is no competition for EcoCover in
Canada or the United States at this time.
Plastic resin, made mainly from oil, went up in cost
over 20% during October 2005. Plastic is not
sustainable. Over 12 million hectares of plastic
is used annually in agriculture and landscaping. EcoCover replaces plastic. Read

Emerging markets are huge and
essential, such as this January 18, 2007 UN announcement
to
plant one billion new trees this year to combat the
effects of global warming. EcoCover Weed Squares
are an excellent mulch and
weed control
for tree seedlings. A tree planting project in
Australia recently used 84,000 square meters of
EcoCover. To mulch a billion trees would take
about 480 EcoCover manufacturing plants running 3
shifts 5 days a week 240 days to create a billion square
meters of EcoCover Mulch Mat. Sale price of a
billion Weed Squares would be approximately US $150
billion. Time to repay the manufacturing plant
investment? Less than 8 months.
There are lots of profitable opportunities
and ideas available for business investment but few, if
any, like EcoCover and few that are organic.
Are other ideas sustainable?
That depends on your
view of the future. The forward thinking inventors
of EcoCover were in the plastic film and plastic mulch
business in New Zealand. Plastic film and mulch
are commodities. EcoCover is brand-able,
and patented. The future will be much
different from the cheap energy world of the past 50
years. Successful businesses and products in the
future will be compatible with Mother Nature, have low
input costs, be energy efficient and environmentally
neutral or positive. EcoCover meets all of these
requirements.

News Item January 29,
2007:
Organic Farming Is Here to Stay
Agricultural productivity
improvements will be in great demand as population
increases, energy costs rise and environmental wisdom
grows to realize that we cannot continue to pollute the
planet with poisonous chemicals and non biodegradable
materials used in agriculture. Landfills are
filling up. Taking up and disposing of
agricultural plastic is a significant expense for
growers and a major environmental problem for all of us.
EcoCover solves these problems. Till it in and
replant, that's all there is to it.
The EcoCover business
opportunity proposition is to purchase one or more
manufacturing plants which you own outright with a license to manufacture
patented EcoCover products.
- You need about Canada $2.2 million in
investment and working capital, less for an already established business
with current cash flow.
- You are purchasing a complete automated
manufacturing line and ancillary equipment to
manufacture the products.
- The purchase price includes on-site installation,
start-up and commissioning.
- The purchase price includes training for your workers and
maintenance personnel.
- You have the right to manufacture EcoCover products under license.
- You get a head start marketing
program so that you can begin sampling and selling
the products before the plant is in operation.
Besides investment funding,
what else do you need?
- A 950 square meter (or
larger) building or manufacturing floor space,
preferably with floor to ceiling clearance of about
7 meters.
- Basic utilities including 3
phase electricity, a source of heating gas (natural,
propane, LNG, butane) and potable water - about 600
liters per shift of production.
- Material handling equipment
(a fork truck) and storage racks
- Five plant workers, an office
administrator and a plant manager-salesperson
EcoCover new product
developments are ongoing. For example, the manufacturing plant opportunity in early 2005 was:
- The EcoCover plant on site
commissioned (meaning installed, started up, workers
trained, trials run)
- The manufacturing plant
capable of producing standard
mulch mat and weed squares
- Positive
results from
early research findings
The present manufacturing plant
opportunity is:
- The EcoCover plant on site
commissioned (meaning installed, started up, workers
trained, trials run)
- The EcoCover plant
is now capable of
producing mulch mat, weed squares, EcoCrop mat,
EcoCoverRF™ (Hessian reinforced EcoCover) + new
derivatives (EcoPotTops), hanging basket liners,
etc. with the primary processes all run on the same
manufacturing line.
- The new EcoPin™ as a stand alone
highly profitable product, see
www.ecopinusa.com
useful as
biodegradable landscape pins and
temporary survey markers.
- Additional plant features that
include: in line slitting and cutting (at no
additional cost) which saves a secondary
manufacturing process; new glue system and
changeover spray bars; faster output (EcoCrop Mat
line speed); new software package for full automatic
start up, monitoring, shut down and operation.
-
Positive
feedback from EcoCover users all around the
world.
- Significant new research
validating new product claims with outstanding
results with more research in process (university
research in India and Norway)
- Continuing new product
development. See
EcoCover product developments in process here.
The value added through continuing
research and development is as great as the initial
offer, and this is all at no additional cost. There are
other incentives for the first plant purchasers in North
America. EcoCover is doing everything possible to
make this a great opportunity.
