Inturf is set to launch an


innovative new soil conditioner at Harrogate Week 2010. Designed especially for golf


and sports turf applications, TerraCottem Turf harnesses a unique combination of over 20 hydroabsorbent and nutritive components to significantly improve soil quality and water retention for healthier, more vigorous turf. Central to this new


formulation’s success is the addition of zeolite, a 100 percent natural volcanic mineral that helps increase soil fertility and water retention.

renowned for its very high Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC), the ion exchange between the soil and soil solution that represents the soil’s ability to hold onto nutrients and prevent them from leaching beyond the roots. The inclusion of 42 percent zeolite with a CEC range of 150 to 180meq/100g, together with 31 percent high-CEC hydroabsorbent copolymers, ensures the CEC levels of soil treated with TerraCottem Turf are far higher than normal.
