Industry Benefits

• 

  Crop Nutrition

  Finely milled particles may have better flowability and dispersibility, making them easier to apply uniformly to the soil. This enhanced consistency can improve nutrient distribution in the root zone and better effectiveness when applied to crops.

• 

  Mulch & Grass Colorants

  Properly milling mulch and grass colorants contributes to a more uniform and even particle distribution, leading to consistent coloration when applied to mulch or grass surfaces. This allows for more vibrant and long-lasting colors when applied and reduces settling and agglomeration of colorant particles, preventing issues such as the clogging of application equipment and costly poor pigment yields.

• 

  Pesticides

  Milling pesticides increases the surface area of active ingredients, leading to better dispersion, easier mixing, and more efficient contact with target pests. Additionally, finely milled particles create fine droplets, improving spray coverage and penetration into target areas, leading to improved pesticide formulations and better pest control overall.

• 

  Fungicides

  Reducing particle size is beneficial in fungicides since smaller particles increase the surface area available for contact with fungal pathogens. Uniform coverage is more easily achieved after the fungicide is enhanced through milling since the fungicide is applied as a spray or mist thanks to finely milled particles.

• 

  Herbicides

  Milling herbicides to decrease particle size extends their effectiveness and reduces the required frequency of applications to achieve desired results. The milling process is especially important in controlled-release herbicide formulations, where the active ingredients are released gradually over time.
