GROWTH WITH INNOVATION
We provide advanced agricultural products aimed at boosting yield, enhancing crop health, and minimising environmental impact across farming, horticulture, and plantations.
The TerraCottem® soil conditioning technology is defined as an effective soil conditioner consisting of a proprietary mixture of more than twenty components from different groups all assisting the plant growth processes in a synergetic way
AN EXTRAORDINARY STORY
It all started with a team of scientists led by Professor Van Cotthem from the Ghent University, Belgium searching for ways to combat desertification and famine in semi-arid countries. The TerraCottem Company was established in 1993 with the aim of combining this technical know-how with a commercial infrastructure that would enable the soil conditioning technology to be accessible to a global market. Today the TerraCottem® technology is distributed in more than 40 countries worldwide.

TERRACOTTEM® PRINCIPLE
The TerraCottem® soil conditioning technology is defined as an effective soil conditioner consisting of a proprietary mixture of more than twenty components from different groups all assisting the plant growth processes in a synergetic way: The growth precursors play a very important role in the initial growth phase of the plant. They activate root cell elongation and differentiation, promote leaf development and biomass production and encourage roots to grow in depth even in conditions of drought.
TERRACOTTEM PRODUCTS
TerraCottem® Turf, also based on the TerraCottem® principle, contains zeolite, a 100 percent natural volcanic mineral that helps increase soil fertility and water retention. All this, to get quicker grass establishment, enhanced root and plant growth and improve the quality of turf, seeded grass and sprigs.
TerraCottem® Arbor has been developed specially for woody plants. Central to this latest formulation are the new generation polymers, the inclusion of humic acids to further enhance water retention capacity, soil structure and microbiological activity and tree specific fertilisers (with a lifespan up to 12 months)
TerraCottem® Complement for applications in flower beds and horticulture previously treated with the “Universal” soil conditioner. TerraCottem Complement replenishes the components that have been consumed by the plants during the previous growing season and those lost each time a crop or annuals are pulled from the soil.
