Today la-PAM is commonly used in wastewater treatment . Rescaype ’ s breakthrough in particle liberation drives down the size of the existing large crystals of la- PAM from 4000 microns to just 50 microns . This multiplies the impact through reaching a much greater distribution area as well as instant soil reactions once the product is activated with water .
Biodegradable , a World Health Organisation and EU-certificated food grade product , Rescaype can retain up to 400 times its weight in water and most importantly then release it to the plant roots through increasing cation exchange capacity of the soil . It reduces soil compaction through its structured aeration actions of swelling and shrinking .
“ Bringing increased socio-economic sustainability benefits to home and professional garden-scapes , our aim is to reduce the number of resources currently used to secure soils and increase plant growth , allowing more carbon storage and creating the “ Precision Landscaping ” pathway for operators and the public .” www . soilwater . co . uk
