Our company

We understand that the big changes in the planet's climate and the sustained increase in the world's population, particularly in the Mexican territory, it requires technological changes to ensure food that this and future generations will demand. Committing to it, is a business opportunity and fulfillment of an inescapable social responsibility.

That is why Green Technologies® was born in 2009 as a product of the concerns of Mexican entrepreneurs, originally from the state of Jalisco, and based in the United States of America, who saw in the development and application of new materials for the construction and maintenance of urban infrastructure and for protected agriculture an opportunity to contribute more appropriate solutions to the economic and social situation of Mexico.

Globally, through 60,000 sales services that have been held over 30 years and associated after-sales services, it is estimated that 9,000 producers that have used hydroFLAKES® and hydroFLAKES® Plus have been satisfied. As far as hydroFOAM® is concerned, approximately 11,000 local administrators, sports fields and golf course managers have been benefited from our services.

Thus, our purpose is:

  • Contribute to a substantial increase in productivity in the Mexican field.
  • Contribute to significant savings in water consumption for irrigation.
  • Contribute to a decrease in the costs associated with the application of nutrients.
