Nutricote®
The superior controlled
release fertiliser that
really lasts as long as it
claims.
Nutricote® Regular
50, 1 00, 1 80,
270 & 360 day
16 N + 4.4 P + 8.3 K
(elemental)
Nutricote® Total
50 day
13 N + 5.7 P + 10.8 K
+1.2 Mg + TE
(elemental)
Unlike many fertilisers that release nutrients
too soon to deliver full-season feeding,
Nutricote® controlled release fertiliser releases
its nutrients gradually and predictably.
It provides your plants with the vital nutrients
they need, when they need them, all season long.
Unique coating
A totally new technology has been developed
for Nutricote's resin coating process.
• All granules receive exactly the same
thickness of coating, whether the product is
to last 2 or 1 8 months.
• The release rate is controlled by a releasing
agent, which is added to the resin. The amount of release agent in the coating
determines how porous the coating is, which determines how fast the nutrients
will diffuse into the root zone.
• Nutrient release is independent of soil moisture, soil type, soil pH or
microbiological activity.
• The nutrient release is moderately affected by temperature, which keeps the rate
of release synchronised with the rate of plant growth.

Other special formulations (micro,
Hi K, Low P, TreeBlend 1 4-1 8M, etc.)
are also available on request.
Only the highest quality soluble NPK components are used in Nutricote®.
• No chloride or sulphate, as fertilisers containing these cause a harmful increase in
the salt levels of potting mixes and also affect pH levels.
• Every prill contains the whole package of nutrients in the same concentrations for
a homogeneous application.
• Uniform size, coating thickness and shape of every prill, which allows a consistent
and accurate nutrient release. It also helps the grower or potting mix producer to
achieve a uniform mixture of fertiliser.
• Non brittle thermoplastic coating that does not crack or break.
High safety
Probably the most important feature of Nutricote® is the high degree of plant safety
offered. Due to the near perfect coating and the exact control of release, Nutricote®
provides a very high level of security to the grower.
With no flash release of nitrogen and no erratic surges of release, Nutricote® offers
more safety than most similar products on the market today.
