Amino Acid Chelated Iron

High-Purity Amino Acid Chelated Iron for Fertilizer Manufacturing and Specialty Crop Nutrition

Amino Acid Chelated Iron Ingredient for Modern Fertilizer Formulations

Amino Acid Chelated Iron is a premium water-soluble iron fertilizer produced by chelating iron with amino acids, primarily glycine. Containing 10% iron and 25% amino acids, it delivers highly bioavailable iron while enhancing nutrient absorption through the natural transport function of amino acids.

Iron is an essential micronutrient responsible for chlorophyll synthesis, photosynthesis, enzyme activation, and energy metabolism. The amino acid carrier promotes rapid foliar absorption and efficient nutrient utilization, making this product particularly suitable for correcting iron deficiency in high-value crops.

It is widely used in foliar fertilizers, fertigation systems, greenhouse production, hydroponics, and specialty fertilizer formulations.

WHY AMINO ACID IRON

Key Benefits

Dual Nutritional Function

Provides both highly available iron and amino acids to support vigorous crop growth.

Rapid Foliar Absorption

The amino acid carrier promotes fast iron uptake through leaf surfaces, helping plants recover quickly from iron deficiency.

Restores Healthy Green Leaves

Supports chlorophyll synthesis and rapidly improves leaf greenness and photosynthetic efficiency.

Improves Plant Vigor

Enhances nutrient utilization, enzyme activity, and overall crop performance.
