Vateris starts customer SOP trials

UK-based start-up Vateris has started supplying potassium sulphate (SOP) samples from its pilot plant to fertilizer industry customers for trials. This follows the successful ramp-up of the company’s pilot production plant in Nottingham, UK, earlier this year.

SOP samples produced at the plant are now being sent to a number of fertilizer manufacturers and distributors across Europe, who will run independent trials and evaluate the product. This will allow potential customers to assess both the quality and physical characteristics of the product — as well as directly benchmark Vateris SOP against currently available products from established market suppliers.
