BioSafe Systems Introduces CalOx Calcium Supplement

Posted by Lauren María Alexander|April 7, 2014

BioSafe Systems has added two new products to its portfolio of green and sustainable products for agriculture and horticulture. CalOx, which comes in micronized liquid and wettable powder forms, is intended to raise soil pH and help plants take up nutrients more quickly.

The micronized liquid calcium form of CalOx is the next generation of micronized calcium carbonate. It has been milled down to less than one micron to allow for a highly superior product in a liquid form. The wettable powder form of CalOx is a 5-micron product that can be used as an effective alternative to bagged lime on a variety of crops.

BioSafe Systems has partnered with the world’s largest supplier of calcium carbonate products. This unique micronized calcium allows calcium to be easily applied either as a foliar spray or by injection through subsurface irrigation or chemigated into any type of irrigation system.

CalOx is said to perform much better than standard calcium products, either liquid or dry, due to the very small particle size. The small size allows plants to absorb calcium and other micronutrients more efficiently. CalOx is available in a variety of sizes, including 2.5, 5, 55, and 275-gallon containers.
