DMP is a highly specialised, turn-key supplier to the mushroom industry. “In order to save costs for our customers, many DMP products can be produced globally, as close as possible to the pro- ject site. In addition,, we support the use of local partners for various services, under DMP supervision. Our customers benefit from best of both worlds; DMP knowledge and experience, while saving costs by working with local partners”, says Ron Hegger, CEO of DMP.

Besides use of solar panels for generating electricity, the farm uses hot water from a natural source at 3500 m below the surface. This water is used for heating and sterilisation of the rooms, using a special system designed and sup- plied by DMP. As such, the farm will run without using any boilers so no gas, oil or other fossil fuel is needed.” According to Frutura Mushroom Manager Johannes Auer, the choice to work with

I look forward to a fruitful and long lasting cooperation with DMP.” For more infor- mation, please contact Ron Hegger via
