Zion smart ionite substrate, originated from the Mars Exploration Program of the former Soviet Union, which was designed for plants supply for astronauts in long-term space travel. It can also be used for growing plants in space crafts, submarines, arctic stations and other extreme conditions.
Since 1990, after years of research and development, Zion gained unique patent, built mass production system and launched products into markets on a large scale. Zion has built a comprehensive technology communication and interaction system with Russia, the Middle East, the United States, China and other agricultural and forestry regions.
Zion smart ionite substrate, a nitrate-free ecofriendly product, contains nutrients necessary for the efficient growth of plants. It is suitable for any kind of soil. Through ion exchange technology, Zion can meet the nutritional needs of the whole growth cycle of plants! Zion is completely different from the traditional fertilize!
ZION is a combination of nutrients (N, P, K, S, etc) captured by natural ion-exchangers as positively or negatively charged ions
Zion contains all the trace elements necessary for plant growth.
Zion is high concentrated granulated nutritious media for plants growing. Plants can grow directly on the ZION beads.
ZION ionite substrates were developed for application in space shuttles, submarines, shelters, arctic stations, etc. as artificial soil for plants cultivation.
substrates is an intelligent nutritionist of plants through ion exchange. ZION is not regular fertilizer!
Learn moreNutrients are releasing to the soil and consuming by the plants only due to ion exchange between ZION substrate and metabolites excreted by roots during plant development. So plant always consume the most suitable, optimal combination of nutrients for the most sustainable growth.
All nutrients are linked with functional groups of inorganic environmental friendly matrix according to ion-exchange principle. No washing of nutrients from the soil due to overwatering, floods or heavy rains.
Learn moreBased on 100% natural material. Does not contain nitrates, pesticides, herbicides, growth accelerators and hormones.
Contributes to the enhanced development of the root system. Overdosing is impossible!
No microbiological contamination
Add once and then just watering the plant properly
Balance plant nutrition and increase harvest
Addition of ZION even to barren sand makes it comparable in terms of nutrients with the best peat soil.

It is widely used in modern horticulture, modern agriculture, modern forestry, urban greening, soil improvement, desertification control and other fields to benefit mankind and the earth.
After years of research and development, a unique patent protection has been formed and put into the market on a large scale.
