who we are at advanced bio products
Listen to a short 3 ½ minute audio recording made by some of our colleagues about who we are, why we make natural plant care products and what they think about those products.
Discovery of Liquid Mulch
It all began in 2007 with an idea about how to make a biodegradable plastic film that solves a number of issues & problems for growers. While working with farmers and the Fruit & Vegetable Growers Association, I found that traditional films, whether or not they are degradable, are a hassle to work with. Seven years later Liquid Mulch came to be and we have been improving it ever since.
It is now the flagship product here at Advanced Bio Products with two main formulations: One for your garden and the other for your houseplants.
Ruben Lenz
Chemist & President, Advanced Bio Products
In addition, over the years I have helped many companies solve both large and small challenges. Some names you might recognize such as Novon, a division of Warner Lambert, ADM-Ogilvie, and Cascade.
I have also helped smaller companies such as Fire Rein, CL Activewear, and True Glue.
No challenge is too big or too small. I enjoy a challenge.
The products that I developed, that I am particularly proud of, and that you will find here at Advanced Bio Products are Liquid Mulch for your garden, Liquid Mulch for your houseplants, and Nutritional Leaf Spray. Try them!
I am a polysaccharide chemist with over 40 years of experience, and I have developed many successful commercial products over the course of my career.
Why buy from us?
Advanced Bio Products is a Canadian, family owned business located in Ontario and I am proud of what we have accomplished. That is why I guarantee your satisfaction.
You will also find that using my products is less expensive than the chemical alternatives.
I started as a Polysaccharide Chemist over 35 years ago and I always had the desire to make industry more sustainable by substituting petroleum based, synthetic chemicals with naturally derived ones. Advanced Bio Products is the extension of that. It brings the successes I have brought to large chemical companies to your home.
I have helped Industry save over 4,500,000 L of crude oil. Each time you use one of my products from this store you are helping the world reduce our reliance on petrochemicals.
Our natural plant care products such as Liquid Mulch, Seaweed Fertilizer and Nutritional Leaf Spray (cleaner & brightener) will help preserve your plants beautifully, help keep your home environment stay safe and are also great for the planet. Finally, we use local ingredients as much as possible, I look forward to serving you!
