Sulphur coated urea is a controlled release fertiliser produced by coating hot urea by molten sulphur polyurethane oil or a microcrystalline wax. The ideal ratio comprises 30%–40% nitrogen and around 20% sulphur. Sulphur coated urea is specialised fertiliser that is coated with wither wax or polymer and releases nutrients slowly. Sulphur coated urea finds application predominantly in agriculture, golf courses, professional lawn care and turf, green houses, horticulture and nurseries.

Drivers & Restraints

Growing concerns over sustainability and cost minimisation in the agriculture sector is driving demand for sulphur coated urea globally. Stringent regulatory framework on conventional fertilisers, concerns about eutrophication, and preferences for spending on luxury amenities such as household lawns and growing number of golf courses are some of the key factors supporting growth of the global sulphur coated urea market. Increasing urbanisation and income levels across the globe (especially in Asian economies) are anticipated to significantly contribute to the overall demand for sulphur coated urea in the near future.

Conversely, increasing commercialisation and product innovation in alternative products such as polymer coated urea and higher cost of sulphur coated urea compared to conventional urea fertilisers are some minor factors restraining growth of the global sulphur coated urea market.
