MINED GYPSUM
Our Premium Grade Natural Gypsum is 100% natural and Australian mined and refined calcium sulfate.
Pacific Fertiliser supply gypsum in Fine, Super Fine, Ultra Fine and Granular grades from our plants in bulk, bulkbags or pallets of 25kg bags.
Pacific Fertiliser sells premium natural mined gypsum products that are extracted from the best gypsum mines in Australia and we are continuing to also develop additional gypsum resources on the eastern seaboard.
Natural gypsum can be used for many applications from agricultural cropping applications, industrial uses and civil works.
• Agriculture – premium Grade 1 suitable for agriculture.
• Flocculation – the gypsum is suitable for flocculation of sediment dams to reduce water turbidity.
• Stabilisation – mined gypsum is widely used for stabilisation, land rehabilitation and site revegetation.
Our group of companies know gypsum as we handle over 70,000 tonnes of natural & recycled gypsum products every year.
Note: QLD Gypsum 96+% purity, NSW Gypsum 93+% and NSW Mine4m Gypsum 85%

GRANULAR GYPSUM
PacFert can granulate its high quality gypsum into a 2 – 4mm prilled gypsum product, which increases flowability, bulk density and minimises dust during handling, sowing and spreading (similar to OzGypt, GreenCaled, Sulfaprill). There is also a Greens grade 1-2mm granular gypsum for sports and turf and 4-10mm for aerial applications.
The new 2-4mm granulated Gyptek blend which uses the nutrient rich Terrus fertiliser product blended with the addition of 50% high analysis gypsum during manufacture. The Gyptek fertiliser provides increased soil moisture infiltration and water holding capacity while delivering a balanced combination of nutrients and trace elements essential for healthy plant growth, while also conditioning the soil. The properties of Gyptek make it very suitable for deep placement for treating sub soil constraints.

SUPERFLOCC GYPSUM PRODUCTS
SUPERFLOCC is ultra fine natural gypsum powder. The solution grade and aerial grade gypsum products are suitable for industrial, agricultural cropping and civil applications. The ground gypsum can be mixed with water and applied via irrigation (flood, drip), spread aerially, or added to dams for flocculation (to reduce water turbidity) and many other applications.
GYP-FLO – is SuperFlocc gypsum in a pre-mixed liquid form, where the gypsum remains in suspension ready for use (similar to liquid blends of micronized gypsum or nano gypsum). Note with liquid gypsum products there is a trade off between the qty of actual gypsum per tonne and usability on site.
TRIPLE STRIKE ALGAE CONTROL – is a concentrated liquid suspension for the treatment of Algae, and works well with our SuperFlocc Gypsum product for water flocculation at the same time. TRIPLE-STRIKE has a unique 3 – way action, by coagulating and flocculating the Algae to the bottom forming a blanket over the Algae and inhibiting any new growth.
Flocc Blocks – We can also supply the SuperFlocc gypsum in block form, the Dam Clear Flocc blocks can be placed in drainage channels upstream, where they slowly release the gypsum to flocculate the water when there are inflows.
