Our Products

ReStore is a revolutionary high carbon based NPK packed fertiliser pellet. Its composition is based on soil biology requirements, the physical properties of carbon and some advanced technological know-how.

Unique Formula

Its unique formula of carbon (biochar), and free-range chicken litter optimizes the soil’s biology to minimize input costs while maximising output. ReStore offers increased yields, resilience to climate instability, and higher soil health and vitality.

Carbon (biochar)

The alien invasive wood is chipped into useable biomass, which is processed into biochar in a controlled process called pyrolysis. Although it looks a lot like common charcoal, biochar is produced using a specific process to reduce contamination and safely store carbon.

Chicken litter

A good soil amendment, free-range chicken litter is naturally rich in nutrients needed by plants to establish strong root systems and produce foliage and fruit. It also contains the bacteria used in the poultry’s digestive process, which works to break down organic matter and helps to increase the water holding capacity even more.

The biochar is then mixed with the free-range chicken litter and pelletised for ease of use.

Benefits

It improves the soil’s ability to hold water, and infiltration of the soil reduces the need for watering – ideal for low water environments. (See: Biochar helps hold water, saves money by Rice University)
It supports beneficial micro-organisms and biodiversity that support root development and plant growth.
The combination of high NPK and carbon content improves crop yields and sustains healthy production whilst reducing synthetic nitrogen dependency.
Disease and pathogen resistance.
Reduced insect infestation.
Reduced soil bulk density and improved tilth (tilled or prepared surface soil).
Reduced leaching of nutrients.
The impact of cropland on the environment and climate is mitigated.
Our water cycles are re-established.
The earth is less prone to erosion.
Healthier soil and crops create a healthier environment for producers and consumers.

The ReStore Process

ReStore consists of a mixture of carbon and free-range chicken litter, using a specialized process. Our carbon source comes from invasive alien species cleared from local farms in the Overberg, Western Cape.
