Why More Growers Are Moving Away from Peat — and How Van der Knaap Is Getting It Right

by Katie Leedham on Feb 04 2026
The shift away from peat isn’t coming “one day soon”. It’s already happening. What began as a retail-led push has now reached commercial horticulture. More nurseries, professional growers and garden centres are actively reassessing what they grow in, and asking the same question: what really works once peat is off the table? For most, the concern isn’t ideology. It’s performance. Peat has set a high bar over decades, and replacing it with something that behaves consistently, scales commercially and delivers crop quality isn’t trivial. That’s where Van der Knaap fits in. At Creation Horticulture, we supply their full range of 100% peat-free professional growing media; substrates developed specifically for real-world production, not just good intentions. Years of research, trials and commercial use sit behind every mix, giving growers a genuine alternative without compromise.
