Soil amendment conditioner with the ability to retain and release nutrients as needed by the plant.  Clinoptilolite has been shown to encapsulate heavy metals and other toxic elements while absorbing and releasing nutrients for time-released plant uptake. 

Improve heavily degraded and contaminated soils with zeolite.

Regulate Nutrients

Zeolite helps regulate the release of nutrients to the soil.  Nutrients are retained in the growth zone and are plant accessible but not water-soluble. The availability of nutrients improves the overall performance of roots and plant growth. Zeolite improves soil structure by pairing cation exchange capacity with an affinity for ammonia and potassium. These properties allow zeolite to improve the health of soil and waterways.

Improve Nutrient Retention

Unlike soil amendments such as lime, zeolite does not break down over time. Instead, it remains in the soil to improve nutrient retention. In agriculture and horticulture, zeolite is used as a slow-releasing carrier of fertilizers and agrochemicals like insecticides, pesticides, and growth stimulators. The mineral is particularly useful for recultivation, increasing the nitrogen balance in light and sandy soil, and increasing the production capacity of acid in devastated soils.

Reduce Soil Compaction

Zeolite also helps reduce soil compaction and works to increase infiltration, both of which promote aeration of deep root systems due. This process is made possible by the mineral’s high surface area and porosity.

Reduce fertilizer requirements

Because of its superior absorption and adsorption properties, zeolite reduces water and fertilizer costs by retaining beneficial nutrients and moisture in the root zone. The porous structure of the mineral promotes active soil that remains aerated and moist over time. Because zeolite is not acidic, its use alongside fertilizers can buffer soil pH levels, which reduces the need for lime applications. Due to these properties, zeolite is beneficial both in terms of economic and environmental factors.
