White urea prills trickling from a steel shovel, a heap in the warehouse behind

Urea prilled 46 %

Urea Prilled 46 % N

The standard nitrogen fertiliser in seaborne trade. Fine grain, dissolves quickly, cheap to load.

Prills are formed by spraying the urea melt in a tower and are smaller and softer than granules. That suits them to spray application and further processing, but they wear more with repeated handling. The biuret content is the critical parameter. Biuret forms when the process temperature is too high and damages plants when applied to the leaf.

Urea granular 46 %

Urea Granular 46 % N

Coarse, hard grain that resists abrasion. The trade form for broadcast spreading and long transport chains.

Granules are built up in a fluidised bed and so reach larger, harder grains than prills. This pays off with repeated handling, storage in humid climates and mechanical broadcast spreading, because the grains travel further and more evenly. The permitted biuret value is usually lower than for prills.

Technical grade urea

Technical Grade Urea

Higher purity for industrial processing rather than for the field.

Technical grade urea is used as a feedstock for DEF solutions, urea formaldehyde resins, melamine and industrial processes. The requirements for metal content and biuret are well above those of fertiliser grade. The exact specification depends on the buyer's process and is fixed in the contract.

Applications: DEF production · UF resins · Melamine production · Industrial processes
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk

AdBlue / DEF

Urea solution 32.5 % to ISO 22241

Reducing agent for SCR exhaust aftertreatment, standardised down to trace metals.

The 32.5 % urea solution is injected into the exhaust line. There it releases ammonia, which reduces nitrogen oxides at the SCR catalyst to nitrogen and water, cutting NOx by up to 90 % depending on the system. ISO 22241 limits the urea content and also aldehydes and individual metals in the milligram range, because even traces poison the catalyst.

Applications: Commercial vehicle fleets · Construction and agricultural machinery · Power plants (SNCR) · Filling station networks
Packaging: 10 L / 20 L canister · 208 L drum · IBC 1,000 L · Bulk / ISO tank

UAN solution

32 % N (also 30 % and 28 %)

Liquid nitrogen fertiliser made from urea and ammonium nitrate for fertigation and band application.

UAN combines three forms of nitrogen (nitrate, ammonium and amide), so part of it acts at once and part with a delay. As a liquid fertiliser it can be dosed precisely, combined with crop protection products and applied through irrigation systems. The standard concentration of 32 % N is diluted to 30 or 28 % for colder regions, because the crystallisation temperature rises with concentration.

Applications: Fertigation · Band application · Arable farming on a large scale
Packaging: IBC 1,000 L · Flexitank · ISO tank · Bulk

Ammonium sulphate

21-0-0

Nitrogen plus sulphur in one grain, for soils short of sulphur and alkaline sites.

Besides 21 % nitrogen, ammonium sulphate supplies sulphate sulphur, which has become limiting in many soils since atmospheric sulphur deposition declined. It also acidifies the soil and is therefore of interest on calcareous sites. Trade forms are crystalline and granulated.

Applications: Arable farming on soils low in sulphur · Alkaline sites · Blending plants
Packaging: 25 kg bag · 50 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk vessel
HS code: 3102.21

DAP (diammonium phosphate)

18-46-0

The world's most traded phosphate fertiliser, highly concentrated and easy to spread.

DAP delivers nitrogen and phosphate together and is mainly used for basal fertilisation. On dissolving, a briefly alkaline environment forms around the grain, so care is needed near seed. The high nutrient density lowers transport and application costs per nutrient unit.

Applications: Basal fertilisation · Blending plants · Fertiliser importers
Packaging: 50 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk vessel

MAP (monoammonium phosphate)

11-52-0

Phosphate fertiliser with a slightly acidic reaction, safer near the seed than DAP.

MAP contains more phosphate and less nitrogen than DAP and reacts slightly acidic on dissolving. It can therefore be placed closer to the seed and is advantageous on alkaline soils, where phosphate availability otherwise falls quickly.

Applications: Starter fertilisation · Alkaline soils · Blending plants
Packaging: 50 kg bag · 1,000 kg big bag · Bulk vessel

NPK compound fertiliser

specific to each project, e.g. 15-15-15 or 20-10-10

Complete fertilisers put together for crop and soil. Each one is a recipe rather than a standard.

NPK formulations are blended for crop, soil analysis and time of cultivation. There is no fixed standard. What matters are the agreed analysis, the grain hardness and the uniformity of the blend, so that the components do not separate in transport. Compound product spreads more reliably than a bulk blend.

Applications: Arable farming · Plantations · Fertiliser distributors

MOP (potassium chloride)

0-0-60

The standard potash source in world trade, leading by volume.

Muriate of potash is the cheapest and most traded form of potash. The chloride content is unproblematic for most arable crops. For crops sensitive to chloride, such as tobacco, potatoes or many fruit types, SOP is used instead.

SOP (potassium sulphate)

0-0-50

Potash source free of chloride, with sulphur, for sensitive crops and salty soils.

Potassium sulphate supplies potash without chloride and also provides sulphate sulphur. This makes it the choice for fruit, vegetables, tobacco, vines and irrigated crops on soils with high salinity. The price is well above MOP, which limits its use to crops of higher value.

Applications: Fruit and vegetable growing · Viticulture · Crops sensitive to chloride
