Urea Storage

Urea fertilizer has to be stored in a cool, dry and a well-ventilated area is our recommendation.

Urea is neither combustible nor explosive. It can be stored safely with no loss of quality under normal circumstances. Small or fast-moving augers should not be used to move granular urea. Urea particles are generally soft and abrasion can break the granules. Belt conveyers should be used whenever possible.

Urea should not be stored with ammonium nitrate. These materials, when in contact, rapidly absorb water when the relative humidity is above 18%.

Packaging and shipment

Solid urea is marketed as prills or granules. The advantage of prills is that in general they can be produced more cheaply than granules but because of their narrower particle size distribution, have an advantage over prills if applied mechanically to the soil. Properties such as impact strength, crushing strength and free-flowing behaviour of the product are particularly important in handling, storage and bulk transportation specially in international logistical challenges.
