Who is RTI?

Reforestation Technologies International (RTI) is the oldest and largest producer of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in the United States. RTI pioneered the biodegradable transplant fertilizer pack now commonly used in many applications through various industries around the world. RTI continues to provide high-quality fertilizer products and biological inoculants for forest regeneration, habitat restoration, mine reclamation, agriculture, landscaping, home gardening, and hydroponic markets. RTI also offers a customizable program for manufacturers, formulators, and private labeling.

Science

Healthy soils are supported by a vast universe of bacteria & fungi that live in or around the plant's root system.

What is Mycorrhizae?

Mycorrhiza directly translates as "fungus-root," which refers to the beneficial partnership between the roots of a host plant and a fungus. These beneficial fungi colonize plant roots and become a true extension of the root system. Mycorrhizal fungi are very efficient at mining and absorbing nutrients and water compared to plant roots.

​

RTI has established a unique process for growing and cultivating mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal fungi grown "in-vivo" promotes stronger biological genetics for quicker adaptation to soil and weather conditions. RTI produces over 6 species of arbuscular, endo-mycorrhizal fungi.

 

Every batch of mycorrhizal fungi is quality control tested and certified with the highest standards. Our goal is to provide our customers with the highest quality mycorrhizal inoculant available in any market.

Transplant Pak Technology

RTI revolutionized the forestry industry with its development of the transplant "pak" technology. The paks are capable of being filled with natural or polymer-coated fertilizer, enabling the controlled release of nutrients over an extended period of time, conveniently packaged in a biodegradable transplant packet. 

Business To Business

Custom Products & Private Labeling

RTI has built the infrastructure and expertise to serve as a behind-the-scenes manufacturing and formulation partner for companies of all sizes — from emerging startups launching their first product to large agricultural operations requiring high-volume supply.

 

The B2B services span the full product lifecycle: custom formulation of granular, wettable powder, and soluble biological amendments using RTI's proprietary in-house grown inoculants; contract packaging in formats ranging from 10-gram biodegradable transplant packets to 50-pound farm sacks and 1-ton totes; and liquid bottling in containers from 2-ounce bottles up to 2.5-gallon jugs and 10-liter Astrapouches.

 

Every batch of RTI biologicals is quality-control tested internally and verified by third-party laboratory analysis, ensuring that propagule counts, viability, and cleanliness meet the infectivity standards claimed on the label — giving commercial partners the confidence to put their own brand behind RTI's science.
