Product information

PRO SERIES SAND FIXER is a liquid soil adjuvant designed to improve water distribution and nutrient efficiency in fast-draining, hydrophobic and clay-contaminated profiles. It is suitable for sand, sandy loam, perlite, gravel, pebbles and loose growing media.

Unlike conventional wetting agents that move with water, SAND FIXER binds directly to mineral surfaces and continues influencing later irrigations.

CORE FUNCTIONALITY AND BENEFITS

SAND FIXER coats mineral particles with a functional “mineral skin” that changes how water moves through the profile.

Horizontal Spreading
Creates a wider, flatter wetting pattern—bridging dry gaps and expanding moisture availability across the root zone.

Nutrient Distribution
Builds a broader, connected water pathway so dissolved nutrients, fertilisers and compatible additives spread further instead of being lost through vertical bypass.

Clay-Fines Flocculation
Carries a light charge to draw dispersed clay fines into larger flocs—reducing pore blockage and restoring water movement through clay-affected sand.

Resource Efficiency
Helps reduce irrigation water and fertiliser loss below active roots while supporting more even moisture and growth.

PERFORMANCE DATA

Boundary Bend sandy-loam trial

  • More than 100% wider horizontal water spread
  • 33.7% less mid-test drainage
  • Approximately 20% better modelled irrigation efficiency

Kagome tomato study

  • 24% higher yield
  • 78% less blossom-end rot
  • 58% less fruit rot

Hydrophobic golf-sand trial

  • Improved water movement into the profile
  • Turf remained playable following treatment

APPLICATION

Apply as a diluted liquid through standard spray or irrigation equipment 0.1% v/v

  • Standard loose profiles: 2 mL/m²
  • Hydrophobic or severe dry patches: 5 mL/m²
  • Clay-contaminated sand: 10 mL/m²

Dilute with at least 1 L of water per m².

Apply evenly to moist soil and water in lightly.

SAND FIXER begins working with the next irrigation.

Apply monthly until the profile is treated and water behaviour is corrected. Then top up twice yearly—or when soil movement causes the problem to return.

THE PROBLEM

WATER GOES IN.
THEN IT'S GONE.

Sand drains fast. Water and dissolved nutrients can pass beyond roots.

THE SOLUTION

SPREAD IT. DON'T LOSE IT.

SAND FIXER helps water move sideways through the useful root zone before it drains down.

THE RESULT

MORE OF THE ROOT ZONE IN REACH.

  • Wider wettingFewer dry gaps.
  • Less bypassKeep water in the useful zone.
  • Better distributionHelp dissolved nutrients reach more roots.
