Launching across the world: ZymeCO is proud to be exclusive partners with Living Turf of Australia and New Zealand

Phil Dwyer, VP Sales & Marketing • September 11, 2025

Founded in 2003, Living Turf is Australia’s largest privately-owned turf management distributorship, providing strategic consultancy and expert agronomic advice to golf, sports and open space turf managers and businesses. With over 100 employees and offices across Australia and New Zealand, Living Turf delivers tailored programs and leading solutions that are scientifically sound and have minimized environmental impact.

"Our shared philosophies of using biology to achieve optimal turfgrass conditioning and performance have matched from day one. ThatchZyme works with soil biology to accelerate thatch breakdown, and being able to offer this programmatic approach to turfgrass managers through a partner such as Living Turf is exactly what we had hoped for," says Phil Dwyer of ZymeCO.

Rob Cooper, Founder of Living Turf, adds “I have known Phil Dwyer, who is behind the science of ThatchZyme, for thirty years - that was the first major tick of approval for me. Now, having trialled the product, seen the data, and understand what it can do, I am eager to share it with our clients and see what it can do to improve the sports turf in Australia and New Zealand."

What are enzymes and how do they work?

By Stephanie Wedryk, Ph.D. • October 21, 2026

Biological products rely on living microbes that must survive changing field conditions or on blends of naturally occurring compounds with multiple modes of action. ZymeCO enzymes are different. They are non-living, purified proteins designed to catalyze specific biochemical reactions.

Fulvic acid doesn’t always start in a mine.

Unlike conventional leonardite-based fulvic products, FulviZyme combines plant-derived fulvic acid with naturally occurring organic acids and bioactive plant compounds.

Breaking down lignin is only the beginning of managing residue after harvest

By Stephanie Wedryk, Ph.D. • September 30, 2026

Effective residue management does more than reduce excess residue on surface. It helps turn this year’s residue into healthier soil and a more uniform start for next year’s crop.

How TillZyme Helps Break Down Crop Residue

Rather than viewing residue as something to simply manage, TillZyme helps unlock its value by helping start the biological process that turns tough plant material into a resource for the soil.

There’s More Value in Your Corn Residue Than You Think

By Stephanie Wedryk, Ph.D. • September 8, 2026

Corn residue can decompose slowly because lignin gives stalks and leaves their rigid structure. TillZyme™ uses laccase enzyme technology to help accelerate the breakdown of tough crop residue.

Break it Down with TillZyme

By Stephanie Wedryk, Ph.D. • September 2, 2026

After harvest, crop residue is not just leftover stalks and leaves. It is an active biological system that adds nutrients to the soil, increases organic matter, and builds better soil structure for next year. Actively managed residues help create a favorable seedbed for better stands and yield. The enzymes produced by fungi accelerate the process by breaking down tough lignin before naturally occurring soil microbes take over. Learn more here .
