How We Work

A collaborative, research-led approach to pollination control

Effective pollination control is essential for maintaining genetic integrity, reducing cross-contamination and maximising seed yield. At PBS International, we work in close partnership with plant breeders and seed producers to develop reliable pollination control solutions that perform consistently in real-world growing environments.

Our approach combines technical expertise, advanced fabric development and a deep understanding of the practical challenges faced across global seed production.

Designed around crops, environments and breeding objectives

Every breeding programme is different. Crop type, climate, geography and production method all influence how pollination control fabrics must perform in the field.

We take the time to understand these variables before recommending or developing technical fabrics. This ensures each solution is fit for purpose — delivering effective pollen exclusions, isolations, durability and usability under operational conditions.

Research-led technical fabric development

We invest continuously in research, testing and refinement to ensure our pollination control fabrics meet the highest standards of performance and reliability. From pollen exclusion, isolation and airflow balance to strength, handling and longevity, every product is developed with field application in mind.

This research-led approach allows us to deliver pollination control solutions that perform season after season across a wide range of crops and environments.

Collaborative problem-solving with breeders and producers

We work as a long-term partner to plant breeders, seed producers and research organisations, collaborating closely to develop solutions tailored to specific crops, climates and production systems.

By working collaboratively, we help reduce contamination risk, improve operational efficiency and support consistent seed quality even in complex or high-risk breeding environments.

Performance without compromise

Effective pollination control must balance protection, practicality and cost-effectiveness. Our technical fabrics are designed to deliver reliable pollen exclusion and isolations while remaining easy to deploy and economically viable at scale.

This balanced approach helps seed producers achieve higher yields and greater confidence without introducing unnecessary complexity or risk.

Proven in global seed production

PBS works with plant breeding programmes and seed producers in over 40 countries worldwide. Our pollination control fabrics are trusted across diverse climates and growing conditions, supporting both commercial seed production and specialist breeding operations.
