Lystek Accepted Into Membership of Canadian Fertilizer Institute
Jul. 23, 2013
The Canadian Fertilizer Institute (CFI) has accepted Cambridge-based biosolids and organics processing firm, Lystek International Inc., into its membership.
“CFI is pleased to welcome Lystek as an associate member of our organization,” commented Roger Larson, President of CFI. “CFI is the association representing the fertilizer industry in Canada. Our industry contributes over $12 billion annually to the Canadian economy and plays an essential role in ensuring that world food needs can be met economically and sustainably.” Membership within CFI is by board approval and members are committed to meeting the needs of the agricultural sector and society for a safe and sustainable food supply. Lystek is unique in that it is the first biosolids and organics processing company to be accepted into CFI. The Lystek product (LysteGro) has been successfully registered at the federal level with the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA). This speaks highly to Lystek’s technology and process.
As the unified voice of the Canadian fertilizer industry, CFI’s mission is to promote safe, responsible, and sustainable, globally competitive fertilizer production, distribution and use. It fulfills this mission by developing and implementing four key strategic initiatives: 1) Issues and policy development 2) Knowledge development and education 3) Product stewardship 4) Industry services. The CFI runs a number of stewardship and awareness programs that help build industry best practices around the use of fertilizer.
“This is yet another example of what sets Lystek apart.” reflected Kevin Litwiller, Director of Business Development at Lystek. “Not only is our patented process simple and cost-effective, but it produces a safe, nutrient-rich, fertilizer product that is remarkably high in organic content. It features predictable NPK values and has a wide variety of uses from agriculture to forestry, soil reclamation and remediation. We are honoured to be accepted into the CFI and we are fully committed to playing an active role in contributing to a more sustainable future.”
