What inhibitor-treated urea means for your supply chain — and how to get compliant fast.
The UK Nitrates Action Programme requires urea in Nitrate Vulnerable Zones to be treated with a certified urease inhibitor. You either source pre-treated urea, or supply the inhibitor directly into your formulation process.
Fertinagro manufactures two EU-certified UREASE inhibitor formulations — Efisoil Dura-U (granular) and Nitro-Optima (liquid) — with full technical documentation ready for your compliance pack.

The UK Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism applies a levy on carbon-intensive nitrogen imports from 1 January 2027 — with no free allowances, at ~€105 per tonne of urea. Unlike the EU CBAM, UK origin alone does not determine your exposure: compliance requires embedded-carbon data, traceability, and evidenced carbon pricing.
Fertinagro provides what your supply chain needs to evidence compliance: EcovadIS Platinum (top 1% globally), EPD Process certification with plant-by-plant carbon footprint data, and full traceability from manufacturing to delivery.
Conventional nitrogen supply runs through the Strait of Hormuz and other geopolitical chokepoints. That risk is real — it has driven significant spot price spikes in recent cycles, directly affecting input costs for UK formulators.
Fertinagro operates 28 production plants across Europe, supplying 80+ countries direct. The infrastructure of an industrial manufacturer — without the import chain volatility.
