Urea 46% is the world’s most widely used nitrogen fertilizer — and one of the most traded agricultural commodities in Asia and Africa. SARV Trading Group supplies urea 46% nitrogen for fertilizer distributors, government tender programs, and industrial buyers across China and Africa.
Prilled vs Granular: Choosing the Right Form
Urea is produced in two physical forms, and the choice matters for handling and application.
Prilled urea has smaller, uniform spheres. It dissolves quickly, making it well suited to fertigation systems, foliar application, and fertilizer blending operations where rapid solubility counts.
Granular urea has larger, harder granules that resist breakage during bulk handling and transport. It is the preferred form for mechanized spreading and bulk blending, and it dominates in many African markets where product must survive long inland logistics chains without degrading into dust.
Both forms carry the same 46% nitrogen content. The right choice depends on how the product will be handled and applied at destination.
Fertilizer and Industrial Applications
Beyond agriculture, urea is an industrial raw material: a feedstock for urea-formaldehyde resins and melamine production, and a key input for DEF (diesel exhaust fluid, known as AdBlue) manufacturing. Buyers in both segments need the same thing — predictable nitrogen content and low contamination.
Quality Signals Buyers Check
Serious buyers verify three parameters before committing: minimum 46% nitrogen content, low moisture to prevent caking, and low biuret levels for fertilizer-grade product (biuret above specification can damage crops). SARV supplies urea with documented specifications and independent inspection available on request, so the cargo that arrives matches the specification that was agreed.
Built for Tender and Term Supply
A large share of urea moving into Africa is purchased through government and institutional tenders, where specification clarity and documented quality decide who wins. SARV works with tender buyers on specification alignment and reliable scheduling, cargo after cargo.
