The whole chain sits under one roof: blending, coating, liquids, biology, filling, quality control and a research farm to test the result on actual soil.
Granulation in which every granule carries the complete declared analysis, so nothing segregates between the bag and the field.
Physical blending of single-nutrient and specialty granules to a target ratio, with compatibility checked before the batch rather than after it.
Sulfur coating at commercial scale — the line behind VAN's sulfur-coated urea, running since before the grade had a market in Pakistan.
The full VL liquid range, from foliar concentrates to fertigation grades.
Compost and organic-carbon carriers, humate in crystal, powder, pellet and liquid forms.
Established, with test production alongside it. Phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria today; a liquid inoculant and a mycorrhizal product in development, all on locally isolated strains.
Boron and iron coated directly onto the granule — the house speciality. The micronutrient cannot segregate in the bag, and it lands wherever the granule lands. Biological coating is in development.
Pack formats from one litre to bulk, with finished-goods storage on site.
Orders above a single lot run as repeat batches to the same frozen specification.
Every production lot is released against a certificate of analysis from VAN's own laboratory. The format is consistent across the catalogue: physical status, moisture, particle size and pH, followed by the chemical assays, each carrying its specification, its result and the method used to obtain it. That last column is the one that matters in an audit, and it is why COA data — not marketing copy — is the source for every physical property published on this site.
No lot ships without a COA against the frozen specification.
Every assay names the analytical method, so a third-party result can be compared like for like.
A change to a frozen specification is a documented change with the partner informed, not a silent substitution.
VAN's first agricultural experimental station was established in 2009 and the company runs its own research farm, staffed by agricultural scientists, for product trials. A formulation that performs in a beaker and fails on a calcareous field has failed, and the farm is where that gets found out before a client's season depends on it.
Recognition for the R&D programme has come from the Pakistan Innovation Foundation and from the Market Development Facility of the Government of Australia.
Certificate numbers and issuing bodies are provided on request and in any partner audit pack.
Plant visits are part of most partner conversations, and for a co-manufacturing decision they are usually the point at which it becomes a real one.
