Composition
DuraTec® Top 14 is a premium controlled-release NPK complex fertilizer featuring a balanced nutrient ratio of 14-7-14, enhanced with Magnesium (2MgO), Sulphur (9S) and essential trace elements (TE). It includes DMPP (3,4-dimethylpyrazolphosphate) a proven nitrification inhibitor and 25% coated nitrogen for gradual nutrient delivery.
Controlled nutrient releases
The nutrients are released in two steps:
Under the normal influence and under temperate conditions, the controlled supply lasts two to three months. The nutrient supply is linked to temperature, i.e. warm (cold) temperature will reduce (increase) the longevity. Drought will also inhibit the nutrient supply. Both effects ensure that nutrient supply is well-adapted to the plant growth factors. During the active phase of DMPP (4 to 10 weeks, depending on soil temperature and soil humidity) the transformation of ammonium to nitrate is delayed. As a result, N-availability is further adapted to the plants requirements and N efficiency is increased.
Key Features:
- Combines fast-acting and slow-release nitrogen sources for consistent growth.
- Nutrients are released in two phases—immediate starter effect and long-term diffusion.
- Release duration (2–3 months) adapts to soil moisture and temperature conditions.
- Every granule contains the complete nutrient mix for even coverage via hand or spreader.
Benefits:
DuraTec® Top 14 offers a reliable, easy-to-use solution that ensures even nutrient distribution and long-lasting plant health with minimal effort.
- Promotes steady, sustained plant growth with fewer applications.
- Increases nutrient uptake efficiency and reduces environmental losses.
- Ideal for turf management, landscaping and professional horticulture.
- Saves labour and time with longer nutrient availability.
Applications:
- By Spreader: Use a fertilizer spreader for uniform distribution across large areas like lawns or sports fields.
- By Hand: For small gardens or spot treatments, apply evenly by hand using gloves.
