Van Iperen Potassium Sulphate (SOP) Horticultural Grade is the first water-soluble Potassium Sulphate fertilizer produced through a circular process with a minimized carbon footprint. It is produced by our Swedish industrial partner, CINIS Fertilizer. GreenSwitch® SOP is a highly pure Potassium fertilizer, which dissolves rapidly and completely. Like conventional water-soluble SOP, GreenSwitch® SOP can be used in any fertilization program for high-tech greenhouse and open field fertigation as well as for foliar application. Our product is not sensitive to caking and is recommended during fruit or tuber development, up until maturation, and during the coloring of fruits. The high Potassium level in our formula plays an essential role in achieving higher-quality yields. Growers using GreenSwitch® products reduce their Carbon Footprint and bring waste back to life. With GreenSwitch® Potassium Sulphate, growers make the switch to sustainable high-tech agriculture. GreenSwitch® Potassium Sulphate, another step in our Green Switch Journey!
