Celtonita

Celtonita is a solution based on natural clinoptilolite zeolite enriched with macro and micronutrients, developed to act as a mineral reservoir of water and nutrients in the soil or substrate. Its application contributes to improving nutritional efficiency, favoring root development and supporting more balanced plant growth.

The main function of Celtonita is to retain water and nutrients in its mineral structure and make them gradually available to plants. This helps reduce nutritional losses and improves the utilization of resources already applied in management.

Celtonita has a high ion exchange capacity. This means it can retain nutrients in its mineral structure and release them gradually through interaction with the root system. Furthermore, its porosity allows it to store moisture, contributing to greater water availability in the root zone.

Yes. Celtonita helps reduce losses due to leaching and volatilization, keeping nutrients available for longer in the soil or substrate. In practice, this can improve fertilization efficiency and reduce waste in nutritional management.

Yes. Because it is highly porous, Celtonita can store moisture in its mineral structure, helping to keep water available for plants in more challenging conditions. This effect is especially relevant in sensitive phases, such as initial development, nurseries, substrates, and transplantation.

Yes. Celtonita is especially interesting for nurseries and substrates because it helps create a more stable root environment, with better availability of water and nutrients. Furthermore, the technical data sheet highlights that it does not increase the electrical conductivity of the substrate, which is an important differentiator in initial phases and seedling management.

Yes. By improving water and nutrient availability and favoring root development, Celtonita can help reduce transplant stress and support healthier plant establishment.

Yes. Celtonita promotes a more balanced root environment, with better water retention, nutrients available for longer, and better aeration of the soil or substrate. These factors contribute to healthier plants with greater root volume.

According to the technical data sheet, Celtonita does not increase the electrical conductivity of the substrate. This point is important because it allows for improving water and nutrient reserves without increasing the risk associated with excess salinity in the root environment.

Yes. Celtonita is authorized for use in organic farming in accordance with EU Regulation 2018/848, as per the applicable regulatory framework.

Celtonita can be applied in different crops and systems, including vegetables, cereals, fruit trees, vineyards, olive groves, nurseries, substrates, degraded soil recovery, and regenerative agriculture. The recommended dose and method of application should consider the crop, the soil or substrate, and the management objective.

Celtonita can be applied to the soil, in the row, in the hole, before sowing or planting, as base fertilization, in already established crops, or mixed into the substrate in nurseries. The ideal application method depends on the crop and the management strategy.

Each crop has specific needs for rooting, water retention, nutrition, and adaptation to the soil or substrate. Therefore, a technical evaluation is recommended to define the most appropriate dose, timing, and method of application. Consult our specialists.
