Seeds (Seed coatings)
Try our minerals additives to improve seed homogeneity, integrity and seeding production.

Mineral coatings for improved seed performance
Seeds are coated for ease of handling, singulation, precision placement and the incorporation of beneficial chemicals or microbials. Coated seeds are accepted widely as a standard product for many crops.
Our minerals improve seed homogeneity, integrity and seeding production. They are used in seed encrusting and pelleting to improve:
- Colour
- Lubrication
- Increase seed size/weight
- Addition of pesticides/inoculants
- Improve seed placement and germination rate = “stand establishment”
- Vegetables, “forage”, cotton, tobacco, sugar beet
- Minerals used as pigments, pigment extenders, resin extenders
Our minerals can also be used in film coating or seed enhancement, to improve:
- Colour – all genetically modified seeds need to be coloured for identification
- Lubrication
- Addition of pesticides/inoculants
- Minerals used as pigments, pigment extenders, resin extenders
