Description

PurÖSil is processed  siliceous earth mined from sedimentary layers deposited millions of years  ago in a fresh water lake. It is light weight grains like in appearance, very porous and  comprises siliceous fossils of plant algae. It consists  primarily of amorphous silica  ,a highly beneficial nutrient for plants as it strengthens cell walls and leads to healthier, stronger and more robust plants
PurÖSil  is used as a high performance soil amendment / conditioner to provide plant  available silica and improve cation exchange  capacity.   improves  porosity and drainage of soil and promote  the health of the soil’s root system. • The addition of  PurÖSilto soil helps to promote the healthy growth of living plants. The intricate pore structure of diatoms keeps the pores in the soil open and controls the water supply to  the roots, holding and releasing moisture when required. The improved structure oxygenates  the soil and helps break up heavy clay.
 
Key Benefits of   PurÖSil
 
High Porosity., i.e high  Water Retention 
Low Bulk Density  ( reduces dead load in roof structures )  .
Thermal conditioning at the root level  
 High cation-anion exchange.
Chemically inert.
 High Silica strengthens and improves Roots.
Decreases number of Pathogens in soil.
Flushes Salts from soil.
Applications:
Creation of sport lawns in natural turf , Refurbishment, improvement of the sensitive areas (bad draining, shade areas or, inversely, too permeable soils) , green spaces (arboretums/ botanical gardens, trees, gardens),golf courses ,sports fields,  roof /terrace gardens , green roof and other  landscape projects by  Landscape gardeners, green keepers and landscape architects
