SUPERSORB is manufactured as a high quality super absorbing water crystal.
SUPERSORB is a free flowing white granular copolymer that absorbs hundreds of times its weight in water and can last for years!
SUPERSORB has a wide variety of uses in mining, agriculture, as well as home and gardening applications.
RST is dedicated to water conservation and helping the environment. SUPERSORB water crystals save valuable water resources.
AGRICULTURAL AND GARDEN APPLICATIONS
SUPERSORB will significantly reduce water depletion while dramatically improving plant survival and growth.
SUPERSORB is commonly used in hydroseeding to stabilise newly graded soil. Mixed with or without cellulose mulch, they make it possible to maintain a minimum of surface water, permitting rapid sprouting of seedlings even in dry areas. The vegetation cover develops uniformly and rapidly over the whole treated surface. There are no dry spots without grass.
SUPERSORB can help plants survive by reducing irrigation requirements up to 50%.
SUPERSORB makes it possible to reduce the amount of mulch needed and prevents cellulose mulch from going hardpan during a dry spell. The mulch remains aerated and allows the seed to sprout quickly.

MINING AND CIVIL EARTHWORKS
SUPERSORB is used extensively in the mining and civil earthworks industry to thicken up watery slurries so that they can be easily removed.
In underground mine operations, material on the ground which needs to be removed for operational purposes that is too thick to pump and too watery to shovel are called 'Swillies'. By adding SUPERSORB into the 'slushy' material the material thickens up dramatically allowing for instant removal with the relevant equipment.
In civil earthworks projects the same principle is used in removing very muddy material from site.
SUPERSORB is cost effective and very easy to handle.
