Urea Fertilizer 46-0-0

The world's most concentrated solid nitrogen fertilizer. Our prilled and granular urea contains 46% nitrogen, delivering rapid vegetative growth for cereals, maize, rice, and vegetables. Manufactured in Thailand under ISO 9001 standards for consistent purity and performance.

Why Choose Our Urea Fertilizer?

Urea is the most cost-effective nitrogen fertilizer globally. Our Thai-manufactured urea dissolves quickly in soil moisture and converts to plant-available ammonium and nitrate forms through natural microbial processes.

  • Highest nitrogen content of any solid fertilizer — reduces transport and application costs
  • Low biuret content (below 1%) prevents leaf burn and phytotoxicity
  • Suitable for all soil types and cropping systems worldwide
  • Compatible with basal dressing, top dressing, and fertigation
  • Quick dissolution and nutrient release in moist tropical soils
  • Low salt index compared to ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulphate

Storage & Shelf Life

Proper storage ensures Urea maintains its nutrient content and physical quality from delivery to application.

Storage Requirements

  • Store in a dry, covered warehouse with waterproof roofing and walls
  • Keep bags on pallets at least 10cm above the floor to prevent moisture absorption from concrete
  • Maintain 60cm clearance between pallets and walls for air circulation
  • Stack height should not exceed 20 bags to prevent compression caking
  • Protect from direct sunlight, rain, and standing water
  • Ensure adequate ventilation to reduce humidity buildup

Shelf Life

When stored under proper conditions, Urea 46-0-0 maintains full nutrient content and physical quality for 12–18 months. Urea is moderately hygroscopic — it absorbs moisture from air when relative humidity exceeds 72%. In tropical storage conditions, use sealed packaging and warehouse dehumidification where possible.

Signs of Degradation

Caking (hardening into solid masses) indicates moisture absorption. Slightly caked urea can be broken apart and still used, but heavily degraded product may have reduced nitrogen content. Our anti-caking coating provides 6-12 months of protection during tropical storage.

Frequently Asked Questions — Urea 46-0-0

Urea 46-0-0 is a high-nitrogen fertilizer containing 46% nitrogen. It is used to promote leafy growth in crops such as rice, maize, wheat, sugarcane, and vegetables. It is the most widely used nitrogen fertilizer globally due to its high nutrient concentration and competitive price.

Our Urea guarantees: Nitrogen (N) 46.0% minimum, Biuret 1.0% maximum, Moisture 0.5% maximum, Granule size 2-4mm (90% minimum). Every batch is tested in our ISO-certified laboratory before shipment, and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided confirming actual values.

Biuret is a byproduct formed during urea manufacturing at high temperatures. High biuret content (above 1.5%) can cause leaf burn and phytotoxicity when applied as foliar spray or to sensitive crops. Our urea maintains biuret below 1.0%, making it safe for all application methods including foliar feeding.

Prilled urea is formed by spraying molten urea from the top of a prilling tower, creating small spherical granules (1-3mm). Granular urea is produced by a drum granulation process, creating larger, harder granules (2-4mm). Granular urea is preferred for bulk export because it has better physical strength, lower dust, and reduced caking tendency during shipping and storage.

Yes. Thai Fertilizer supplies Urea 46-0-0 in 50kg PP woven bags with PE liner, 25kg retail bags with custom printing, 1000kg FIBC jumbo bags, and bulk vessel shipments. All batches include a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and can be inspected by SGS, Bureau Veritas, or FIGICO Intl at the port of loading.

Our standard MOQ is one 20-foot container (approximately 25-27 MT depending on packaging). Trial orders of 10 MT can be arranged with adjusted pricing. Bulk orders of 100+ MT receive volume discounts, and long-term supply contracts (12+ months) qualify for preferential pricing.

A standard 20-foot container holds approximately 500-540 bags of 50kg each, totaling 25-27 metric tons. For 25kg bags, approximately 1,000-1,080 bags per container. For 1000kg jumbo bags (FIBC), 20-25 bags per container. Container loading capacity may vary slightly based on packaging type and bag dimensions.

We ship Urea 46-0-0 from Laem Chabang Port, Thailand via containerized or break-bulk ocean freight. Delivery time is typically 15-35 days depending on the destination port. We work with major shipping lines including Maersk, MSC, and CMA CGM for reliable schedules. We offer both FOB Bangkok and CIF pricing to your destination port.

We offer: (1) 50kg PP woven bags with PE liner — standard export packaging, (2) 25kg bags for retail markets with custom brand printing available for 100+ MT orders, (3) 1000kg FIBC jumbo bags for bulk buyers, and (4) bulk vessel loading for orders over 5,000 MT. All packaging is moisture-resistant and designed for international ocean freight.

Yes. Custom brand printing is available for orders over 100 metric tons. We can print your company logo, product name, NPK analysis, guaranteed analysis, barcode, and any required local language information. Custom printing typically requires 2-3 weeks additional lead time for plate preparation and bag production.

Yes. We can arrange third-party inspection at the port of loading in Thailand. Available inspection agencies include SGS, Bureau Veritas, and FIGICO Intl. The inspection covers product quality (nutrient analysis, moisture, biuret, granule size), quantity (weight verification), and packaging condition. Inspection costs are typically borne by the buyer.

Standard lead time is 10-15 days from order confirmation for products in stock. For custom formulations or large orders (500+ MT), lead time may extend to 3-4 weeks to allow for raw material sourcing and production scheduling. We recommend placing orders 4-6 weeks before required shipping date.

Every export shipment includes: Certificate of Analysis (COA), Certificate of Origin (Thai Chamber of Commerce), Commercial Invoice, Packing List, Bill of Lading (B/L), Phytosanitary Certificate (where required), Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), and Fumigation Certificate (if wooden pallets are used). Additional documentation can be arranged based on destination country requirements.

We accept: (1) Irrevocable Letter of Credit (L/C) at sight — preferred for large orders, (2) Telegraphic Transfer (T/T) — 30% deposit with balance against shipping documents, (3) Western Union or bank transfer for smaller orders. Payment terms may vary based on order size, relationship history, and destination country.

The Harmonized System (HS) Code for Urea is 3102.10. This code is used internationally for customs declarations, trade statistics, and import duty calculations. We include the HS Code on all commercial invoices and shipping documentation.

No. Urea 46-0-0 is a synthetic nitrogen fertilizer and is not permitted in certified organic farming systems. For organic agriculture, we recommend our Fish Emulsion 5-1-1 or Organic Fertilizer products, which are derived from natural sources and comply with organic certification standards.

Urea can be applied as basal dressing before planting (incorporated into soil), top dressing during vegetative growth stages, or dissolved in water for fertigation and foliar application. For best results, apply before irrigation or expected rainfall to minimize nitrogen loss through volatilization. Incorporate into soil or band-place 5-7cm from the seed row to reduce ammonia losses.

Urea is effective for virtually all crops that require nitrogen nutrition. Top performing crops include: maize/corn, rice, wheat, sugarcane, cotton, coffee, oil palm, tea, vegetables (tomatoes, peppers, cabbage), and pasture grasses. Application rates vary from 100-400 kg/ha depending on crop type, soil nitrogen levels, and target yield.

Urea has a salt index of 75.4, which is lower than ammonium nitrate (104.7) and ammonium sulphate (69.0 per unit of N). This means urea has a moderate risk of seed damage when placed directly in contact with seeds. For seed-row placement, use rates below 15 kg N/ha or band-place away from the seed to prevent germination damage.

Yes, urea can be blended with DAP, MOP, and SOP for custom NPK formulations. However, blends should be used promptly after mixing as urea's hygroscopic nature can cause the blend to absorb moisture and cake over time. Do not blend urea with ammonium nitrate or calcium-based fertilizers.
