Compost Activator

Compost Activator - BioTreat CA20 is an innovative biological compost activator. BioTreat CA20 uses the powerful waste digesting properties of proprietary selected natural microbes to speed up the composting process.

BioTreat CA20 accelerates the breakdown processes, minimising the time taken for complete digestion. BioTreat CA20 also generates increased temperatures (up to 60oC -75oC). This increased temperature inactivates weed seeds, human and animal pathogens, and viruses and accelerates degradation of cellulose and lignin from plant materials. The accelerated process prevents foul odours and creates nutrient rich humus in the shortest possible time.

BioTreat CA20 comprises a proprietary blend of naturally occurring microbes, enzymes, nutrients and growth stimulants.
