NANOTERN: SMART SUBSOIL WATER RESERVE

VISION

We are here to revolutionize the agriculture industry by enabling farmers to grow their crops without relying on inconsistent weather and expensive irrigation.

NANOTERN is a product of ANT Systems, utilizes advanced nanotechnology and boosts a unique molecular structure that provides high swelling capacity and superior strength underground.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Game-Changing Water Absorption

NANOTERN addresses the critical issue of water scarcity in agriculture with its groundbreaking biodegradable superabsorbent polymer.

PROBLEM

With a rapidly growing population, the world is grappling with increasing water scarcity. Agricultural water preservation methods are often expensive and inefficient, causing significant production challenges. Moreover, irregular rain patterns and climate change are adversely affecting product efficiency. The regulation of excessive water use has become imperative due to various natural and artificial factors.

SOLUTION

NANOTERN absorbs excess water and nutrients in the soil, releasing them during periods of drought. This ensures that crops receive the necessary hydration and nutrition to thrive, even in challenging conditions

NANOTERN

Product Range

01

NANOTERN 

Suitable for all types of soil

Nanotern is a polyacrylate-based nanocomposite superabsorbent polymer engineered for advanced water retention in agriculture. Thanks to its unique structure and enhanced mechanical strength, it can absorb up to 1800 times its weight in water and gradually release it over 40 days, supporting crops through extended dry periods.

 

Designed for long-term performance, Nanotern Basic remains active in soil for up to 5 years and is compatible with all soil types. Its structure allows for 4 to 5 cycles of repeated swelling and drying, ensuring sustained water availability for plants.

02

NANOTERN Bio+

Suitable for all types of soil

Nanotern bio+ is a cellulose-based biodegradable superabsorbent polymer in granular powder form, providing superior water absorption and retention. It absorbs 600-1800 times its weight in water and releases in 40 days. Fully biodegrades on soil without any harmful effects, making it suitable for all soil types and agricultural applications. It has 4-5 cycles of repeated swelling capacity.

03

NANOTERN Nutri

Suitable for all types of soil

Nanotern nutri is a superabsorbent polymer enriched with essential micronutrients like boron,iron,zinc and calcium providing superior water absorption and retention. It absorbs 600-1800 times its weight in water, and releases nutrients to plants for up to 40 days, making it ideal for all soil types. It has 4-5 cycles of repeated swelling capacity.

04

NANOTERN Custom

Custom engineered product for your soil

Nanotern custom is a tailored superabsorbent polymer designed to meet the specific needs of your soil. This custom-engineered product ensures optimal water retention and nutrient delivery for enhanced agricultural performance.

05 NANOTERN Landscaping

Landscaping Applications

Nanotern Landscaping is a polyacrylate-based nanocomposite superabsorbent polymer designed to enhance water retention and promote healthy vegetation in landscaping projects. With its easy-to-apply format and long-lasting performance, Nanotern is a powerful tool for sustainable landscaping, especially in water-scarce environments.

 

Easy Application: Nanotern can be directly mixed into soil, sand, or planting substrate, or laid as a base layer before planting grass or vegetation. It integrates seamlessly into existing landscaping practices, requiring no specialized equipment.

 

Accelerated Grass Establishment: By forming a water-retaining gel matrix, Nanotern supports seed germination and early growth, significantly reducing the grass establishment period—especially in arid regions.

 

Ideal for Roof Gardens: Its lightweight structure makes it suitable for rooftop applications where weight is a concern, while its water retention capacity helps reduce irrigation frequency.

 

Soil-Free Greening: Nanotern functions effectively even without soil, enabling its use in innovative urban greening applications such as vertical gardens or green installations on concrete.

 

Cost-Effective Hydroseeding: Nanotern simplifies irrigation systems and reduces the need for multiple substrate layers, cutting hydroseeding input costs by up to 40%.
