Polymer Coated Precision Release Tablet

TABCOTE® combines plant-specific, water-soluble nutrients in a convenient, pre-dosed tablet.

Each tablet is coated with a biodegradable precision-release polymer that gradually meters nutrients directly into the root zone throughout the growing season.

One simple application provides season-long feeding—with no measuring, mixing, or weekly fertilizing.

The precision is in the coating.

1 Plant-Specific Water-Soluble Nutrition

Different plants need different nutrients at different stages of growth. Each TABCOTE® core combines plant-specific macronutrients, essential micronutrients and, in selected formulas, biostimulants. The nutrients are compressed into a convenient, pre-dosed tablet for simple application.

2 Precision-Release Biodegradable Coating

Each tablet is surrounded by a certified soil-biodegradable coating that gradually meters nutrients into the root zone throughout the season. One application provides continuous feeding, after which the coating biodegrades without leaving persistent microplastic residue.

Water in. Nutrition out.

  1. Water droplets passing through the coating into the tablet core

    Moisture enters

    Moisture passes through the coating and dissolves the nutrients inside the core.

  2. Dissolved nutrients moving through the coating into the surrounding root zone

    Nutrients release

    Dissolved nutrients pass through the coating, feeding the surrounding root zone gradually.

  3. Illustrations show the release mechanism; motion is not to scale. Coating colours and nutrient composition vary by formulation.

Steady nutrition.
Over time.

The coating meters nutrient delivery throughout the feeding period, rather than releasing everything at once.

Relative nutrient release rateOver the feeding period
Illustrative steady nutrient release A schematic curve rises during initial activation, remains relatively steady through the feeding period and tapers toward the end. The horizontal axis is time; the vertical axis is relative nutrient release rate. No measured values are shown.

Designed for the plant.
Simple for the grower.

Plant-specific nutrition, controlled release and straightforward application, brought together in one tablet.

For the plant

Plant-specific nutrients
Each formula combines high-quality nutrients in ratios matched to the plant’s feeding requirements.
Biodegradable coating
A certified biodegradable coating meters nutrient delivery through the growth cycle, helping minimise fertilizer loss.

For the grower

Precise application
A fixed tablet count makes the recommended dose clear and easy to apply.
Dust-free handling
Fully coated tablets keep handling dust-free. Their size makes them easy to place and helps prevent spills.

Keep tablets intact and follow the recommended dose and placement for your plant.

Designed for each plant.
