From recycled secondary materials to organic fertilizers shipped worldwide
Belgian company Fertikal is specialised in the production of organic fertilizers from recycled secondary materials. These recycled resources are collected from within a radius of 150 km around the production facility and include chicken manure, struvite, digestates from bio-gas plants, composts, by-products from sugar beet and bio-diesel industry, etc. The sampling of this secondary raw material follows strict rules according to the Flemish end-of-waste legislation.
Fertikal offers the fertilizers in either pellet or crumb form. The organic and organo-mineral product, NPK (nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium) fertilizers, is manufactured for customers worldwide. End-users in 55 countries in South East Asia, the Middle East, Scandinavia and Eastern Europe are among the majority of its clients.

The purpose of Fertikal is dual: not only does it produce organic fertilizers contributing to better soil quality, it also ensures the upscaling of recycled products.
Yearly, Fertikal produces:
- around 110.000 tonnes of compost
- around 90.000 tonnes of organic fertilizer in the shape of pellets or crumbs.
This is made from 300 000 tonnes of secondary raw materials in total (manure, digestates and non-animal base draw materials).
