Most reforestation efforts involve transplanting plantlets grown in nurseries to the soil, though this can be time and resource intensive.
Improving the success rates of direct seeding could greatly increase the speed and efficiency at which we can restore forests.
Global TreeGro has developed a multi-layer module that increases the success rate of direct seeding by providing seeds with an environment that promotes seedling growth and establishment.

4 million Km2 burned each year
According to the European Space Agency, "Fire Affects an estimated four million square kilometres (1.5 million Sq miles) of Earth's Land each year".
The Pine Beetle is aggressively devastating forests in the western provinces of Canada and 19 US states.
Global TreeGro technology is building a better solution for reforestation.

Government of Canada seeking innovative ways to reduce tree planting cost and waste
“Canada’s Forests have a critical role to play in getting us to our climate targets and protecting biodiversity. That’s why we’re helping businesses develop innovative tree planting techniques with challenges like this one, while growing Canada’s forests with investments like 2 Billion Trees program”
– The Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, Minister of Natural Resources
“Forests are the world’s air-conditioning system – The lungs of the planet – and we are on the verge of switching it off.”
