Success Stories

"I’ve been using NANO for pepper for the past 3 years. It helps to boost the plant. I was not getting runners in my plants to make nurseries. After using this product, I have started getting shoot growth and the catkins are elongated. I have a smiling plant. A fresh looking healthy plant. Healthy looking plants can give you better outputs. All in all I have been picking good crops including good pepper weight. I think it's a good product."

"I think this is an eco-sensitive alternative to pure cement or asphalt surface. The Firefly team members are creative and always have interesting experiments and innovation taking place at their company. The Road held very well for 2 years and with some patchwork repair on minor potholes and loose gravel, it is now close to 8 years since its execution. I would certainly recommend this product for someone who wants to put a road together in a farm or an estate"
