The product should be stored in a dry place and covered with a plastic foil to protect it from moisture. If the product is stored in bulk, steel beams and columns should be protected from corrosion, the floor and walls should also be provided with a protective layer. Wooden walls and roof beams have proven to be quite durable.
Use: Granulated Potassium Sulphate is a concentrated potassium and sulfur fertilizer that is perfectly suited for mechanical spraying and bulk mixing as well as direct manual application. It is particularly recommended for increasing the productivity and quality of chlorine-sensitive crops, e.g. fruits, vegetables, grapes and tobacco. Moreover, this fertilizer is the preferred form of potassium for soils affected by salt, as it is practically free of chloride and has a low salt index. Our product is made from raw potassium salt of natural origin and is allowed for use in organic farming in accordance with Regulations (EC) no. 834/2007 and (EC) no 889/2008.
