Hydroplan-EB (SAP) superabsorbent polymers have high quality and purity, developed especially for agriculture. When immersed in water, the polymer absorbs 200 to 400 times its weight and increases its size by up to 100 times. 

The Hydroplan-EB line of superabsorbent polymers comes in varied sizes, the absorption and release capacities of which vary depending on the granule size and the soil conditions. 

Recommendation of the optimal granule size and the most appropriate dosages will depend on factors such as: soil type, crop, climate, and form of application.

ADVANTAGES

In addition to benefiting the environment, Hydroplan-EB Gel is like a water reservoir at the base of the plant.

- Reduction of frequency and/or volume of water used in irrigation.
- Increases plant setting rate in the field.
- Reduction of water and nutrient losses.
- Reduction of water evaporation in the soil.
- Favors plant growth.
- Improves the physical properties of soils and substrates, leaving them more porous.
- Decreases the possibility of reaching the permanent wilting point and plant death.
