Zeolite from 2.5 to 5 mm – Gravel, ideal for incorporation into large-scale crops – 25 kg

Description

Zeolite from 2.5 to 5 mm – Gravel, ideal granulometry of certified, European, natural zeolite, for incorporation into large-scale crops such as trees and fields. At home it can be used in aquarium floors and filters and as a sanitary sand for domestic animals. In industry it is used in cleaning and environmental management. Packaging of 25 kg.

Applications

Zeolite in agriculture

Zeolite is usually applied by incorporation into the soil in quantities from 450 to 600 kg per acre depending on the soil type and its granularity (fineness of material). In heavy soils, 2,5 to 5 mm zeolite is preferred, while in light soils, fine gravel (0,8-2,5 mm) is preferred. A total of 450 to 600 kg per hectare is needed to maximise its contribution to increased production. Its beneficial effect is long-lasting because zeolite does not decompose like other materials.

Features

• 100% ecological
• 100% compatible with organic farming
• Works like a molecular filter
• Manages soil nutrients and water
• Balances the pH
• Cleanses the soil of heavy metals, toxins and free radicals
• Increases the production and quality of the products produced
• It yields permanent results as it does not degrade, does not decompose and does not change its composition
• Enhances resistance to diseases and pests
• Combines perfectly with active microorganisms, strengthening their action
• Can be used as a substrate that helps to grow hydroponic crops in Mediterranean conditions, for cabbage, flowers and aromatic species
• Helps to reduce the amount of fertilisers used

Zeolite and pets

Natural Zeolite provides the most natural and economical solution to maintaining a healthy and clean environment for pets and at the same time helps to improve their health.

Zeolite from 2.5 to 5 mm – Gravel, is 100% ecological, odorless and removes in the most natural way the unpleasant odors of domestic animals by quickly and effectively absorbing moisture. Its powder is beneficial for the animals’ fur as it cleans and disinfects it. It is 100% environmentally friendly and after use it can be used as a fertilizer. It contains no additives and lasts up to five times longer than common sanitary sands. It can be used on small and large animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, chinchillas, reptiles and birds.

Zeolite in industry

Zeolite contributes to a cleaner and safer environment in countless ways. It is used to enrich the atmosphere with oxygen due to its selective ability to absorb nitrogen. It is applied in the cleaning of seas from oil spills. As a redox catalyst, it can remove air pollutants such as engine gases and CFCs that cause ozone depletion. By adding zeolite to cement, in the construction sector, carbon dioxide production is significantly reduced. It also improves and purifies drinking water by filtering out all hazardous substances for humans.

Natural zeolite has been used in cases of nuclear radiation leakage protection, such as at Fukushima and Chernobyl. Because of its ability to bind heavy metals, zeolite is often applied in large quantities in areas of radiation leakage. It binds the radioactive material and is then collected and encapsulated in glass and cement.

In industry it is used in filters to bind carbon dioxide and other harmful compounds. Also, zeolite can be used in the filtration of industrial wastewater, binding various toxic and radioactive ions as well as in recycling of water from industrial activity. But the most important thing is that after its use and with proper treatment its properties can be restored so that it can be reused.
