ADVANTAGES

  1. C.E. Certification

    We pride ourselves on being among the pioneering companies in Europe to adhere to the stringent standards set by the new Regulation 2019/1009 (EU), also known as the “FPR -Fertilising Products Regulation”. We are committed to producing a diverse array of “CE” marked inorganic fertilizers, crafted with meticulous attention to consumer safety and environmental protection. We also take pride in having introduced PRIME Bio, the first CE-marked plant biostimulant in Europe, showcasing our commitment to innovation and quality

  2. Quality control

    LEDRA operates under the strict supervision of the Ministry of Rural Development in Greece and the General Chemical State Laboratory, ensuring adherence to the highest standards of quality and safety, through regular inspections. We are authorized to market an extensive range of products, including over 130 “New Type Fertilizers” and over 30 “Fertilizers for Organic Farming”, underscoring our comprehensive offerings tailored to diverse agricultural needs.

  3. Environment

    Every product in LEDRA’s lineup is meticulously crafted to be free from heavy metals and toxic elements. We prioritize safety, ensuring each offering is benign to both the ecosystem and human health. We adhere strictly to all E.C. Regulations and Directives, guaranteeing that our products meet the highest standards in production, packaging, and use, reducing environmental impact.

  4. SHELION Technology

    LEDRA is honored to exclusively utilize SHELION Technology across Europe for the production of our Inorganic Granular Fertilizers. This cutting-edge approach enables us to create Granular NPK Fertilizers that boast an impressive up to 80% assimilation rate by crops.

    It’s essential to highlight the stark contrast in effectiveness when compared to other inorganic granular NPK fertilizers used for soil application, such as the traditional types of 11-15-15, 15-15-15, 20-10-10, 20-10-0, 16-20-0. Comprehensive global studies have proven that the assimilation of these conventional fertilizers typically does not exceed 30%.

    The integration of SHELION Technology not only significantly optimizes the fertilization process but also manifests tangible benefits for producers. They experience a marked reduction in fertilization costs, with demonstrated savings of up to 50%, an enhancement in soil fertility, and a noticeable decrease in environmental pollution. These advancements are in harmony with the objectives of the European Green Deal, contributing to a cleaner, more sustainable environment, and fostering a transition towards a greener, more resilient agricultural sector.
