Nutrients for Life

Nutrients for Life

The four major fertilizer nutrients are produced from naturally occurring substances either in the earth’s atmosphere (nitrogen), at or near the earth’s surface (phosphate, sulphate) or below the earth’s surface (potash). Our industry consolidates, concentrates and ensures the nutrients are provided in a balanced and environmentally responsible form for use in food production and industrial products.

What We Do
