The coating chemistry will be used in a variety of fertilizer products.


DUBLIN, Ohio -- Today, Everris introduced E-Max Release Technology, a proprietary coating chemistry for use on a wide variety of nutrient components that are incorporated into controlled release fertilizer products. The technology is designed to help nursery and greenhouse growers that are looking for flexible nutrition solutions designed to match the specific needs of their crops.Chris Buchheit, marketing manager for Everris’ ornamental horticulture products, said E-Max will help Osmocote and the company’s other existing brands deliver even better performance and value.

“E-Max Release Technology will help us meet grower needs better than ever before,” Buchheit said. “This coating will aid in the development of products that both complement and enhance our Osmocote portfolio and other fertilizer lines. It will increase Everris’ flexibility to create customized nutrition programs designed for horticulture growers.

E-Max Release Technology is a durable, cutting-edge, reacted polymer coating for use on a variety of essential macro and micro nutrients. Nutrients coated with E-Max Technology are produced to the same high performance standards that Osmocote is renowned for insuring a reliable, consistent and safe release. It will allow for continued expansion of the Everris portfolio, the ability to further enhance nutritional values and an efficient use of a grower’s fertilizer investment.

“With the introduction of E-Max Release Technology, Everris is continually improving nutrient efficiency and value,” Buchheit said. “This is another tool to help growers achieve their goals without sacrificing value or revenues.”
