Clay is a mineral consisting of fine particles. It is widely used as an additive for professional substrates due to its water storing properties and the ability to adsorb nutrients. Buffered nutrients are prevented from leaching during watering and released when required by the plant. The KRONEN Group uses specially granulated, quality certified clay from Sweden due to its advantageous physical and chemical characteristics, leading to increased crop security.
