We supply high-quality bentonite suitable for all types of gardens, from small vegetable patches to large fields.
Benefits of Bentonite in the Garden
Improves soil structure:
Bentonite helps sandy or loose soils retain more water and nutrients, resulting in more fertile soil and healthier plants.
Water retention:
In dry or sandy areas, bentonite helps the soil hold water longer—essential for plant growth during dry periods or in gardens without irrigation.
Increased soil fertility:
Bentonite improves the circulation of nutrients such as calcium, magnesium and iron, making them more accessible to plants.
Natural and eco-friendly:
Bentonite is 100% natural and free from chemical additives, making it a safe choice for sustainable and organic gardening.
Why Use Bentonite in the Garden?
Water savings:
Bentonite clay reduces water loss by holding moisture in the soil longer, reducing irrigation needs—ideal for dry climates or water-restricted areas.
Strengthens soil structure:
It makes sandy soil more cohesive and better able to retain nutrients, leading to healthier plants.
Ideal for vegetable gardens and agriculture:
Bentonite is essential in organic farming, especially in regions with poor or depleted soils.
